Jason Elmore & Hoodoo Witch

Champagne Velvet

2016-11-28

I have to say i liked this one quite and bit. It really fit in well. It has a pretty bluesy feel to it, but at times resorts back to more of like a 60's style swing music with some down home picking thrown in there as well to give it a country feel at times. You can certainly tell they have some pretty good roots underneath them as they have been nominated for several blues awards, and contain some hefty sounds from Texas. I really enjoyed tracks 1, 8, 13, and 14 the most.
