"Blue With Envy" by Tubie Pushe'e (Blues Artist from Texas(TX))

Tubie Pushe'e and his outstanding third release, "Blue With Envy," shines brightly with original and creative Texas-style blues. The first track, "Gimme Back My Car," leads off the disc with a flurry of good ol' blues. The vocals belt out the trials of love gone wrong, while the harmonica blows harmonious riffs and the walking bass line moves the steady and solid beat. Generous helpings of organ hooks and edgy guitar riffs heat up the bluesy tones of "Me and My Woman" which gives this song a deep, country roots feel. A bit of down home country flavor highlights the vocals while the piano complements the sweet guitar solo on "Home." "Skubie's Do 2" is a lush and lyrical guitar solo which is not only blues expression at its best but shows the great talent offered up on this disc. Pushe'e not only displays his love of the blues with engaging style but he also offers some diversity with tempo changes throughout the album. You can't go wrong listening to the well-fashioned songs of "Blue With Envy" by Tubie Pushe'e, as it is packed with terrific vocals, lyrics, and a solid support of instruments.

RadioIndy is pleased to present Ramblin Dawgs with a GrIndie Award for the CD "Rockin Blues"

RadioIndy is pleased to present Ramblin Dawgs with a GrIndie Award for the CD "Rockin Blues"

The Ramblin Dawgs energetic three song EP "Rockin Blues," is full of classic 70's/80's blues tone we all love and remember. The first single, "Steppin Up" is a wonderful throw back to the sound of the Fabulous Thunderbirds with some dirty guitar work by Carlos "C-Dawg" DC. "You Let Me Down" also showcases "C-Dawg's" Clapton infused playing and lets us hear the band jam out some soulful, slow tempo blues. Closing out the three single EP is "Worse Without You," a Chicago style blues number with solid chord progressions and guitar driven riffs and solo. The band as a whole is extremely talented, but Carlos' guitar skills stand out amongst anything else on this disc and deserve to be noticed. If you like Clapton or that old school Chicago blues sound, then "Rockin Blues" is a great CD to add to your collection.
