L.C. Williams and the Driver, (formerly The Blood Orange Martinis), are a hard-driving blues group with a uniquely old school sound. Comprised of Trent Souder on guitar, vocals, and occasionally foot snare, Lauren Williams on harp and vocals, and a rotating ensemble of talented rhythm players, most frequently Mr. Phil Pitula on bass and vocals, they are groove- oriented and always willing to follow an improvisational thread. Reminiscent of fifties and sixties Chicago-style bands, their sound is spare but dynamic. Souder's innovative, syncopated leads are complimented by Williams' brash, gutsy harp playing and Pitula's ever-pulsing bass lines. L.C. Williams and the Driver capture the attention of real blues lovers whenever they take the stage.
All tracks written by Trent Souder except tracks 5, 7, and 9 written by Lauren Williams, and track 8, traditional. Recorded and mixed at Fine Cut Studios by Trent Souder and John Trottnow (finecutstudios.com). Mastered by James Forbes. Check out our website at ww.lcwillliamsandthedriver.com.

b. 12 March 1930, Crockett, Texas, USA, d. 18 October 1960, Houston, Texas, USA. Another artist whose given names are initials, Williams grew up in Mullican, Texas, before moving to Houston around 1945. There he worked in dancehalls and bars as both singer and dancer. He also learned to play drums. Having made the acquaintance of Lightnin’ Hopkins, he recorded for Bill Quinn’s Gold Star label, nicknamed ‘Lightnin’ Jnr.’, with Hopkins backing him on guitar and piano on three singles, and pianists Leroy Carter and Elmore Nixon on one side each of a fourth, all subsequently reissued. He also recorded for Freedom, another Houston label owned by Solomon Kahal, making six records, one combining ‘My Darkest Hour’ and ‘I Want My Baby Back’ reissued on Imperial Records, mostly with Conrad Johnson’s Conney’s Combo. In 1951 he recorded at least four titles, including ‘Baby Child’ and ‘Fannie Mae’, for Sittin In With, owned by New Yorker Bob Shad. Shad probably produced Williams’ final commercial session, made the same year for Mercury Records with backing by saxophonist Henry Hayes And His Rhythm Kings. Williams, addicted to cheap wine, also suffered from tuberculosis. Just prior to his death, he recorded one title with Hopkins and harmonica player Luke ‘Long Gone’ Miles. When asked the significance of his initials, Williams’ reply was ‘love crazy’. Ironic, then, that his death was from lung collapse. ~AMG
