Billy Branch & The Sons Of Blues - Blue and Lonesome

Jacobs, BMG Platinum Songs obo Arc Music, BMI

Since his 1978 debut on our Living Chicago Blues series, Billy Branch has earned a place among the world’s best blues harp players. He was mentored by Chicago’s harp royalty—James Cotton, Junior Wells and Carey Bell. They all considered him their successor as the Windy City’s next harmonica king. His all-star band, The Sons Of Blues, is among the premier blues bands anywhere. With hundreds of studio sessions and 15 albums of his own, including Roots And Branches, Billy Branch is one of the most-recorded blues artists in the world.
