Little Freddie King
Messin’ Around Tha Livin’ Room
Made Right Records
New Orleans’ very own Little Freddie King is back. Known for his virtuosic guitar playing and bluesman swagger, King’s most recent album, Messin Around Tha Livin Room, once again brings the delta blues back to New Orleans. Backed by a 5-piece band, King delivers a hip-shaking inducing album that has as much vested in his guitar playing as it does in the wail of the harmonica, the non-stop beat of the drum, and the growl of King’s voice. With tracks like Back at the Bucket of Blood and Old Yellow Boy, the album presents King in his traditional format, yet at the same time, songs like Soulful Serenade cast light onto a different side of the artist, as he blends his classic blues style with a more emotionally evocative feel. The album is available for purchase at Louisiana Music Factory, and soon will be released online.
