Join Blues bandleader and radio host Jason Vivone for an intimate evening of music exploration at The Listyning Room. In "The Backsell" Jason will curate and spin a selection of records, delving into the deep and complex connections between the music we all love.
3 vocalists with blues roots fall onto the Backsell playlist for June:
We return to visit another of the Ladies Who Swing the Band. Kay Starr's versatility in ballads and uptempo numbers still stuns today.
Georgie Fame, with his laid-back soulfullness, is frequently left off the list of Chicago blue-inspired British bluesters of the 60s. Georgie Fame's assured vocals and graceful keyboard stylings surpasses his contemporaries.
Gatemouth Moore's career as a blues singer began in KC but life would have bigger plans for a man during the American Civil Rights Era.
Just like in radio broadcasting, Jason will "backsell" each set, providing insightful commentary and anecdotes that illuminate the history, influences, and cultural significance of the music you're hearing. It's a chance to rediscover old favorites, discover new gems, and gain a deeper appreciation for the art of recorded sound.
