Brushy One String: Jamaican Blues

Veteran Jamaican bluesman Brushy One String has journeyed long and hard to get to where he’s at right now, which happens to be at Festival International de Louisiane and then on to JazzFest 2013. Buoyed by his guitar strings’ buzz and an array of percussive taps and knocks on the guitar’s body, Brushy evokes an honest and clean sound that has garnered new fans everywhere he goes.

In this podcast we talk with Brushy and his collaborator Luciano Blotta about musical influences, the videos that have grabbed everyone’s attention, and the kindness he’s found from fellow musicians he’s met on this current U.S. tour.
