I just had the opportunity to review the most recent release, Stuck In The Mud, by Christopher Wyze & The Tellers, and it's deep contemporary blues. Opening with blues rocker, Three Hours from Memphis, Christopher Wyze is up front on vocal and harmonica with Eric Deaton on guitar, Gerry Murphy on bass, Justin Holder on drums and Brad Kuhn on piano. This track has a solid melody and strong vocals by Wyze make it a radio contender. Folk blues track, Soul On The Road is a well constructed, story teller song with Wyze accompanied by Cary Hudson on acoustic guitar and slide. Wyze's vocals are clear and intriguing and Hudson's slide work nice placed and engaging. Money Spent Blues is a cool shuffle with strong lead vocals and Deaton on guitar and Kuhn on piano taking a nice spin. Blues rocker, Looking For My Baby is one of my favorite tracks on the release is a great melody, and strong bottom by Holder and Murphy. A standout solo by Brad Guin really hits the spot highlighted by a piano solo by Kunh. Very cool. Wrapping the release is Someday, a straight up radio track with articulate vocals and warm harmonica by Wyze over Kuhn on Wurlitzer, Holder on drums and Murphy on bass. This is a cool closer for an interesting release.
