Eamonn McCormack Eamonn McCormack (CD)

(SAOL/BEM Records) 10 tracks, digipack

With his brand new disc "Eamonn McCormack" Eamonn takes his listeners into the charged image of a life as a traveling blues artist.

The blues on Eamonn McCormack's eighth opus is anything but 'pure'. Neither is his rock or the indie folk that Eamonn sprinkles in. And how could they be - picked up, carried on, and shaped far from the beaten path that has been too cleansed, too smooth for him by hordes of rule-following, standardizing freeloaders? This warm, road-dusted record is not to be understood as a postcard of a blues tourist, but rather as the recollection of a traveler on the most diverse levels, a true explorer.
