After Prado Blues Band, Brazilian guitarist Igor Prado re-charges and jumps into his new band. Here, he reunites several partners too, including Steve Guyger, JJ Jackson and RJ Mischo to create this great album. Igor is one of those handful of players, true to the form of West Coast blues but at the same expressing his own musical personality. His guitar licks are imaginative and memorable - it is evident that he knows the guitar stylings of Junior Watson, Hollywood Fats and Pee Wee Crayton from A to Z but instead of copying them he uses them as a base for his own style. Very classy! "West Coast Blues is alive and well and living in Brazil!" ~Blues Revue Magazine.

Igor Prado has been steadily gaining a reputation as one of the leading south-of-the-border practitioners of that 1940s and 1950s finger-popping, jump blues sound. This time, he knocks out some fine instrumentals, in that vein. Igor plays with taste, talent, energy and good attention to tone. The band is tight and each of the players is excellent. There’s a sense of melody on the jump blues and boogie numbers - a little bit of jazz, a bit of Texas guitar and an original twist. ”...a young talent from South America that has been quickly making a name for himself as one of the best guitar players to emerge in the past few years.” ~Don Jacobson/Southland Blues, USA. Killer stuff – not to be missed!

Lynwood Slim is a name synonymous with West Coast Blues. Over the years Slim has built up an impressive catalog of iconic recordings (including 1991’s Lost In America featuring Junior Watson, as well as the Big Rhythm Combo’s 1994 release Too Small To Dance with Kid Ramos), which subsequently helped him to attain world-wide renown and endeared him to a legion of fans around the globe with a devout affection for California Blues. While traveling on tour outside the U.S., Slim also obtained a considerable reputation for identifying fresh new talent, and soon found his skills and expertise enlisted to help produce numerous projects for gifted artists throughout Europe, Canada and more recently, South America.

In recent years, the Igor Prado Band has been quietly but steadily gaining their reputation as the foremost authority and leading practitioners south of the border of 1940s and 1950s style Chicago/Jump Blues. Based in Sao Paulo, Brazil, the core band is comprised of two brothers; Igor Prado (age 27) on guitar and Yuri Prado (age 26) on drums, harmoniously fortified by bassist Rodrigo Mantovani (age 28) and saxophonist Denilson Martins (age 23). As word spread regarding the group’s natural affinity for traditional American blues and roots music, the Igor Prado Band has become an increasingly popular and in demand unit for supporting many of today’s blues elite while touring South America. The band has admirably backed such esteemed artists as Eddie C. Campbell, Steve Guyger, James Wheeler, Phil Guy, Mud Morganfield (eldest son of Muddy Waters), R.J. Mischo, Gary Smith, Mark Hummel, Mitch Kashmar and Rick Estrin.

J.J. Jackson started his career in New York around 1957 as a songwriter and arranger for Jack Mcduff and Jimmy Witherspoon among others. In the mid 1960s Jackson started singing himself and his manager send Jackson over to the UK in 1966. He recorded a single that became a mammoth R&B hit with one of the most infectious dance smashes of the decade, "But It's Alright". The song was recorded in the UK, featuring some of Britain's top jazz musicians, and with it's classic stuttering guitar riff and sharp horn charts, sounded as authentic as any Stax single. Jackson never matched the success again, but he cut some Northern Soul singles and two albums with increased social consciousness in his songwriting and sophisticated horn and string arrangements.

Jackson first met the Prado Brothers in 1999 in the Sanja Jazz Bar in Sao Paulo. They were still teenagers but they already played excellent stuff. Jackson was impressed and they kept in contact. In 2005 Igor Prado invited J.J. Jackson to participate on their second album 'Blues and Swing'. Jackson handled the vocals on "Those Lonely Nights".

And now back to 2016. The unlikely pairing of the great and talented Prado Brothers brings a whole new sound to this classic soul singer. All songs are covers, but the Prado treatment with horns, makes this a scorching collection of hard blues and soul. A must!

As a left handed youngster Brazilian Igor Prado taught himself the guitar. In 2007 (after recording three albums under the name The Prado Blues Band) Igor released his first album as The Igor Prado Band and called it “Upside Down”. He had developed a reputation as a guitarist by backing up American harpists and vocalists when they toured Brazil. Igor would first take them to Restaurant Don Mariano in Sao Paulo and feed them food and Cachaca, the alcoholic beverage of Brazil, before visiting the recording studio.

This newest album recorded in Brazil features Igor in the studio with various Delta Groove artists. The sessions were recorded between 2011 and 2014. The Igor Prado Band includes Igor, guitar; his brother Yuri, drums; Rodrigo Mantovani, bass; Ari Borger, piano and Denilson Martins, saxophones. Special guests help provide many nice surprises throughout the recording.

Igor Prado gained interest in the guitar at age 11 and immediately fell in love with the language of the blues. 16 years playing in bars and festivals with a few restrictions because of his young age, Igor developed a slightly different style of play. This self-taught lefty turned a right-handed guitar upside down and plays with the strings reversed.

Igor Prado has toured with several renowned American artists like Steve Guyger, RJ Mischo, Mark Hummel, Rick Estrin (Little Charlie & Nightcats), Lynwood Slim, JJ Jackson, James Wheeler, Phil Guy (brother of the legendary Buddy Guy) Mud Morganfield (son of the legendary Muddy Waters), Bob Stroger (bassist of Muddy Waters), Omar Coleman, Curtis Salgado, Sugaray Rayford, Tia Carroll, Junior Watson, Sax Gordon and many others…

"ARI BORGER is the main Blues-Jazz&Soul pianist and organist in Brazil. Influenced by his American mother, he grew up listening to Blues and Jazz masters.

Ari lived in New Orleans and there he performed at the most popular places such as House of Blues and Tipitina’s. In Brazil he played at the biggest Blues and Jazz festivals, sharing evenings with B.B. King, Pinetop Perkins, Marcus Miller and Johnnie Johnson.

Last year Borger played at the biggest and most important piano blues festival in the USA, the "Cincy Blues Fest" performing with legends like Bob Seeley". ~thank you mrwalker for the ari borger info.
