Al Basile: B's Expression

(2015/Sweetspot) 13 tracks. B's Expression is Al Basile's twelfth solo CD release on Sweetspot. Like his others, it's produced by Duke Robillard and uses the Duke Robillard Band to back up Al on this newest collection of his songs. It also uses Roomful of Blues alumni horn players Doug James and Carl Querfurth. Al's been nominated for a Blues Music Award four times in the last five years, and his discs routinely place in the top 15 on the Living Blues charts. Often referred to as the Bard of the Blues, Al writes some of the best songs in the genre; his singing and cornet playing stand out with world class backup and production from Duke and his band. Publicity by Mark Pucci Media, radio promotion by Todd Glazer Promotions.

"Al Basile"

Al Basile grew up in a park in Haverhill, Massachusetts. He graduated from Phillips Academy in 1966, and in 1970 he was the first to receive a Master’s Degree from the Brown University Writing Program. He began his musical career as a cornet player with Roomful of Blues in 1973, and has worked with the Duke Robillard Band as a songwriter and recording member since 1990, appearing on twelve CDs and a DVD; his songs have been used in films and television and covered by such artists as Ruth Brown and Johnny Rawls, and bands New Jump Blues and the Knickerbocker All Stars.

He has fifteen solo blues and roots CDs out under his own name, the majority having reached the top 15 on the Living Blues airplay charts in their year of release. They have all been produced by Robillard and feature his guitar playing and many former Roomful members: guest artists have included the Blind Boys of Alabama, jazz great Scott Hamilton, and the late Sista Monica Parker. He has been nominated seven times since 2010 for a Blues Music Award as best horn player; his 2016 CD Mid-Century Modern was nominated as Best Contemporary Blues Album. He is also a prize-winning poet, with two published books, 2011's A Lit House and 2017's Tonesmith. He taught full time at the Providence Country Day School in East Providence, RI from 1980-2005 and since then has concentrated on his writing, performing, and recording.
