These two could well have written the sound track to O Brother, Where Art Thou?
such is their grasp of Gospel, Appalachian Folk and Blues.

OK Queensland ….  it’s your turn ….
dress to depress with The Blues Preachers.

Renowned traditional pre war blues duo The Blues Preachers specialise in acoustic music from the 1920’s to the 1940’s. In light of the recent economic crisis, their style of depression era blues is relevant both musically and lyrically and a perfect fit for today’s modern world. Many comparisons have been made to today’s economic situation and that of the great depression. The music from that period offers hope and escapism as well as reflecting on hard times ahead. After very successful CD launches in Melbourne and Sydney, The Blues Preacher’s are ready for Queensland.

Featuring Brother John and Captain Bluetongue, The Blues Preachers are a slice of 1929 for 2009. Driving finger-style and slide-guitar combined with harmonica and old-school vocal harmonies create a sound that will have you on the edge of your seats.
