about

Produced by Henry Slim at 4 Picton Lane, Bristol, 15th Dec. 2014.
In an effort to capture the feel of our favourite old blues recordings from the pre-war era, we went with a no-frills approach - "The Downhome Sessions" was recorded in one afternoon, mostly in one take, with one microphone, and no overdubs.
We hope you enjoy it!
