The Mudbellies are old-school blues. Rhythmic,
percussive, shaking and grooving blues, from the deep south
country to the rockin' city. Picking, slide, and
finger style acoustic guitar, Dobro, thumping bass, and
sometimes added kick of drums and harmonica. Covering
a wide range of styles and eras from Delta, Piedmont,
Chicago, and Texas blues styles by Robert Johnson, Muddy
Waters, Willie Dixon, Elmore James, Blind Lemon Jefferson,
Mississippi John Hurt, Howlin' Wolf and Leadbelly.
A "mudbelly"? The legend tells of a slimy lizard fish
that crawls out of the muddy swamps when the moon is
full, oozing eerie mating calls.
