(The first piece, “New Mown Lawn” is reprised in a powerful 3:51 radio edit to close the record.) More familiar songs like “Little By Little,” Wolf’s “Killing Floor” and Bo Diddley’s “I’m a Man” will resonate, and there’s a lesser-known Willie Dixon song — “Businessman” — to interest hardcore blues fans. What’s unusual are the intriguing Gillespie originals, including the Terry Gillespie opening tracks, and a powerful song — “Brother of the Blues” — about Warm. a too-familiar subject, terrorism, but one rarely covered in song. Laid back. “Monkey Hunger,” and re-interpreted versions of “Junco Partner” Amiably home made. (originally done by Heaven’s Radio), “New Orleans Wobble” and Constantly surprising. “Another Black Night” also demand attention. Terry Gillespie has sometimes been called a musical shaman, Canada’s king of roots music and even Mr. Groove — and all for good That’s how the promotion sheet for Terry Gillespie’s new CD, Home reason. There’s no showboating, no over-the top guitar pyrotechnics. Boy, begins. And it’s not too far from the mark. His live performances are laid back, entertaining and captivating in More than any of that, though, the record’s a testament to a career a way that allows his audience to become involved as listeners — or that’s been running for 50 years, and something of a celebration to dancers responding to the groove. mark his 70th birthday. Oh, and if you catch him at one of his four Toronto appearances in Not many Canadian blues artists have Gillespie’s history, and not May, make a point to wish him a happy birthday.

    Brad Cole – Songwriter & Musician

    Brad Cole – Songwriter & Musician Brad Cole is an American singer, songwriter and musician. He plays guitar and percussion and is largely self-taught. Cole has devoted the bulk of his musical career to folk, country, Americana, and pop/rock. His songwriting is borne from the heart and focuses on relationships, struggles, experiences, and coming into one’s own. For over 20 years, Brad has been a fixture on the Chicago music scene sharing the stage with such greats as Uncle Tupelo, The Smashing Pumpkins, Material Issue, Nicholas Tremulis, and blues great Joanna Connor. Cole led several Chicago- based bands including Treatment, Psycholove, The Second Story, and toured with NYC-based The Subscribers. In recent years (since 2011), Brad has been touring nationwide with his own band and as a solo performer, playing to sellout Brad Cole audiences in New York, Chicago and Nashville, sharing the stage with other great folk and Americana artists such as Shovels & Rope, Dan Navarro, Chris Stapleton and Amy Speace. Brad Cole maintains homes in New York and Nashville, and continues to tour and write memorable, thought-provoking songs that speak to the human condition and uneasy truths we too often evade.
