PAGE 5A THE COURIER OCTOBER 1, 2015 Soulful bluesman keeps up the smooth My friend Brian Neely and I were riding to lunch back in 2010, and I was playing Tad Robinson’s latest CD, Back in Style. “I like that,” Brian said. Brian kept teasing me about starting a blues club, but had to put that on the back burner when he became an assistant district attorney in Lee County. I thought about that when I got Tad’s new CD, Day Into Night, in the mail. Tad continues with his smooth soulful blues. “My sound is found at the nexus between blues and soul. Although my original songs may be a distant cousin to the sound of early blues, they are informed by all the traditional blues that I have heard,” Tad said. “As a singer, I gravitate upcoming towards soul and gospel-inflected singers like Ray Charles, Howard Tate, O.V. Wright and as a player, on harmonica, I concerts am drawn to the music of Kim Wilson, Little Walter, Big Walter, Junior Wells, William Clarke, James Cotton.” COREY SMITH The New York native has been making CDs since 1994’s 10/15/15 One to Infinity and has been nominated for every blues award in the business. The Lyric, Oxford Tad is backed by the Severn Records house band of Johnny Moeller, guitar; Kevin Anker, keyboards; Steve Gomes, bass; and Robb Stupka, drums. Also there are special guest appearances from blues guitar wizards Alex Schultz FLORIDA GEORGIA LINE and Anson Funderburgh. 10/15/15 Tad is a throwback to the late 60s and early 70s when BankPLus Amphitheater, Southaven R&B, soul and blues first started mixing. “I loved the style of the old soul records. I want to bring that kind of honest, simple, strong approach back to music,” he said. WALK THE MOON Tad has done that and for now I’ll have to settle to listen 10/21/15 to the CD, until “Brian’s Blueshouse” or “Neely’s Nook” Minglewood Hall, Memphis opens.
