Malcolm learned directly from Blues Masters touring with R.L. Burnside, T Model Ford, Big Jack Johnson, Robert Belfour etc... Developing a uniquely funky and hypnotic Bass/Rhythm/Lead simultaneous "full band" Guitar sound, as One Man Band with foot drums or Power Duo with drummer (notably Cedric Burnside).
