No Time For Blues

A blues song about being broke. Or a song about a blues musician, who literally has no time for blues? It’s up to you. I didn’t expect this one to grow into an international jam session, and it’s been fun.

Well, I have no idea what made me play a boogie on piano. I also have no idea, why this idea has been called “No Time For Blues”, but I am happy that Berni Armstrong took the title to witty sociocritical lyrics. The band literally found itself, because we got requests from guitarist Jussi Nykänen, multi-instrumentalist Andrew Russell (playing double bass) and saxophonist Alex Almirall. You may have heard some of these names from “Dust” or “Good Morning Blues”. We don’t know what made us mix rock’n’roll with jazz, but it’s been fun!

Right after comping the first recordings, we decided that “No Time For Blues” will not only be a single on SoundCloud and YouTube, but the opener of my album “Quarterlife Blues”. Freshly mastered, with additional songs and hidden tracks on Bandcamp.
