Texas Headhunters is what happens when three of Texas’ fiercest guitar slingers – Ian Moore, Johnny Moeller, and Jesse Dayton – finally collide on the same stage. Born from deep roots, old friendships, and a shared reverence for the swaggering soul of Texas blues, this is not your average jam. It’s a movement. A reckoning. A new chapter in the book of American roots music.

Each member carries serious pedigree: Moore’s psychedelic fire, Moeller’s deep-pocket sting, and Dayton’s outlaw storytelling have powered everything from The Fabulous Thunderbirds to Austin’s Antone’s legacy to Grammy-nominated collaborations and cult favorite solo records. Individually, they’ve blazed trails. Together, they’re setting the whole damn map on fire.

This isn’t a tribute, and it’s not nostalgia – it’s a revival with teeth. With roots tracing back to Antone’s and the late Clifford Antone’s last wave of discoveries, the Headhunters are here to remind the world what Texas blues was, is, and still can be.

In 2000, many young blues artists issued retro-sounding recordings featuring analog production techniques and '50s-style instrumentation. For instance, CDs from Sean Costello, Kid Ramos and Rusty Zinn all sounded very pre-1960s. Now Texas guitar-slinger Johnny Moeller (Darrell Nulisch, Lou Ann Barton) also mines the past on his new release Johnny's Blues Aggregation, a soulful collection of groove-heavy roadhouse blues and rootsy R&B done up with a decidedly '50s feel.

Moeller is one of a handful of Texas guitarists often compared to the late Stevie Ray Vaughan. On his latest, Moeller's guitar work sounds closer to surviving Vaughan brother Jimmie, an equally worthy paragon. Some talented Austin-based players back Moeller, including brother Jason on drums and Matt Farrell, whose rollicking piano and soulful vocals help to propel many of these tracks.

From the catchy shuffle of "Oh Baby Oh" to the randy groove of "Mama, The Way You Look Tonight" to the wistul melody of the Doug Sahm-like ballad "Your Turn to Cry," the Texas roots run deep on this release. Rollicking numbers such as "Thinking" and "Let's Get High" are interspersed with danceable instrumentals "Bak 'N Forf" and "Slingin' Hash." Moellers' guitar playing is fiery but economical, and his band rocks out with a raw roadhouse sound characteristic of the best Texas blues.

Fans of Jimmie Vaughan and Lou Ann Barton will want to hear this latest from Johnny Moeller, a guitarist with a bright future. /Ed Kopp, All About Jazz

Johnny Moeller - BlooGaLoo! (With Kim Wilson, Lou Ann Barton, Shawn Pittman)

Size: 101,4 MB
Time: 35:38
File: MP3 @ 320K/s
Released: 2010
Styles: Texas Blues
Art: Front

01. Bloogaloo (3:11)
02. I'm Movin' On Up (3:29)
03. Trick Bag (3:42)
04. Got A Feelin' (2:14)

Austin isn't a town that takes its blues lightly, much less its blues guitar heroes, so the fact that Austinite Johnny Moeller not only cut his teeth at legendary Austin blues club Antone's, but was mentored and touted as the next Stevie Ray by club owner Clifford Antone himself, should speak volumes. Moeller also happens to be the guitarist for the Fabulous Thunderbirds, who have no small reputation in Austin themselves, but he ventures out on his own on BlooGaLoo!. Moeller gets vocal assists from a couple of Texas blues titans as well -- Thunderbirds singer Kim Wilson and LouAnn Barton. Wilson rips it up on supercharged versions of East Texas bluesman Frankie Lee Sims' "Well Goodbye Baby" and Jesse Anderson's ‘60s Chicago blues nugget "Got a Feelin'," while Barton burns in a sassy duet with Moeller on "I'm Stuck on You" and Earl King's "Everybody's Got to Cry Sometime." Moeller takes a few lead vocals on BlooGaLoo!, but he doesn't pretend to be an earth-shaking singer -- his guitar is the real star of the album. One of Moeller's greatest gifts as an axe slinger is his tasteful, economical phrasing. Having learned from the best, he understands that you can say more with one well-placed note than a feverish flurry of misfires. Add to that a visceral tone that seems to give Moeller's every riff a sense of urgency, and you begin to understand why he's emerged as a six-string hotshot in a town that's been all about guitar heroes for decades. ~Review by James Allen

Thanks to Marc.
