SNAKEWATER – A NEW BREED (2012)

“Not to be regionalist or anything, but it seems to me that the recent revival of the live blues scene in the UK has been somewhat dominated by a glut of bright young things hailing from the South and the Midlands. Given the historic tradition of Northern rhythm and blues – particularly in the late 50s and 60s when the genre was first being reappropriated by the British working class – the lack of quality young blues bands and artistes from these regions breaking out and making a national impact has been disappointing. But one band that are well on the way to redressing the balance (and one that we at Midlands Rocks have been championing for a while) are Manchester’s Snakewater. After a lengthy wait, their debut album proper has finally been released, and it’s a cracker.

The new album from Snakewater.
Recorded and produced by Grammy Nomminee Rock Legend ‘Chris Tsangarides’.
