The Nick Moss Band - Get Your Back Into It!

Since first forming The Nick Moss Band Featuring Dennis Gruenling in 2016, master blues guitarist Nick Moss and world class harmonica virtuoso Dennis Gruenling have become torchbearers for traditional electric blues. But rather than repeating what's come before, the band's high-energy take on old school Chicago, Texas and West Coast sounds is completely their own.

With their new Alligator Records album (their third for the label), Get Your Back Into It!, Chicago native Moss and New Jersey native Gruenling - together with Rodrigo Mantovani on bass, Taylor Streiff on keyboards and Pierce Downer on drums - deliver a deeply rooted, timeless blue collar blues album.

Get Your Back Into It! was produced by Moss and Mantovani and contains fourteen original songs: twelve by Moss and two by Gruenling.

Guests include saxophonist "Sax" Gordon Beadle and, on Out Of The Woods, organist "Brother" John Kattke. The album is inspired by the electrifying blues sounds of 1940s through 1960s, and is performed with taste, restraint, sly humor and pure joy.

The stylistically distinct songs - including three wild instrumentals that simply dare you to stay seated - are all connected by Moss' and Gruenling's shared musical vision. "We like to push ourselves out of our comfort zone," Moss says of the songs and performances on the new album, "and I feel like we accomplished that."
