Early on he could duplicate the rock sounds of Led Zeppelin and Jimi Hendrix, and Stevie Ray Vaughan was a definite influence as well. But when he picked up a Howlin’ Wolf record at a local bargain bin, it changed his life. “I was about 12 then, and it was the hippest thing I’d ever heard,” he says. “His guitar player, Hubert Sumlin, was a revela- tion.” he says. Soon after he developed a friendship with Atlanta blues man Felix Reyes, who allowed the young prodigy to sit in regularly throughout Atlanta with his popular act, Felix And The Cats. At 14, Sean won the 1994 Blues Talent Contest sponsored by the Memphis Beale Street Blues Society, and he later competed in the International Blues Competition, an event which also featured another notable contestant, Susan Tedeschi. The two would soon join forces on a series of national tours with Sean as the lead guitar. Their partnership would culminate with Sean providing the sizzling fretwork on Te d e s c h i ’s best selling “Just Won’t Burn.” His stint with Tedeschi along with a steady series of professional gigs and recording dates beginning at age 14, gave Sean the experience and confidence to leave Tedeschi to front his own band. It wasn’t long before he was on the road with his own band, and along the way sitting in with the likes of Cotton, B.B. King, Buddy Guy, Pinetop Perkins, and Bo D i d d l e y. In 1996 he recorded his first album, Call the Cops for Blue Sun Records. Critical reaction was strong. Real Blues magazine called it “an explosive debut,” and England’s Blues and Rhythm said it was “some of the finest, purest blues guitar anywhere.” In 1997, Tedeschi and Sean met up again at the Springing The Blues Festival in Jacksonville and began gigging together out of Boston, then Atlanta. As the success of her Tone Cool album and touring schedule g r e w, Sean’s prowess garnered impressive notices across the country. Sean returned to Atlanta in late 1998 and assembled the band’s current lineup of Melvin Zachary on bass, drummer Terence Pranther, Paul Linden on harp and piano and keyboardist Matt Wauchope. T h e band was soon in the studio to record Cuttin’ In. As Sean puts it, “ We really wanted to come up with something new within a roots- oriented setting, and I’m real pleased with the way it turned out. The band loves reworking the great New Orleans and Chicago s t u ff.” The result was a breakthrough album on which prompted Blues Access to wonder “If he’s this good now, what can he achieve with a few more years on those vocal chords?” and gar- nered a W.C. Handy Award nomination for “Best New A r t i s t D e b u t .” 2001 saw the band tearing up the festival circuit with jaw drop- ping shows and back in the studio to record Moanin’ For Molasses If Cuttin’ In was the breakthrough then Molasses served notice that Sean is the real deal. Not content to rely on the “formula” and pro- duce another CD of Chicago and New Orleans covers he’s expanding his sound to include hard soul with an absolutely amaz- ing cover of James Brown’s “I Want You So Bad,” a hard driving rendition of Johnny Ta y l o r ’s “You Can’t Win With a Losing Hand” and a nice batch of originals. On this CD Costello’s guitar isn’t about flash, it has a refined, clean sound reminiscent of the mas- ters, vintage Buddy Guy included, the result is nothing short of bril- l i a n t . If you have a chance to see Sean Costello live jump on it, drag all your friends to the show...they’ll thank you later! In meantime check out his CDs and discover what can happen when a young guitar god rejects the flash and opts instead for passion, under- standing and respect for the music. We’re sure you’ll agree the blues has bright future with Sean Costello at the helm. Take 3 talented guys who musically are always on the same page, add the simplici- ty of a trio and you get Hatchet Jack. Vocally John Wood (drums & vocals) and Paul Murphy (guitar & vocals) are a powerhouse, belting out blues that Stevie, Albert and Freddie would all approve of. You will almost always find John and Charley Taylor (bass) in the pocket, laying down the foundation for some pretty hot fret work by Paul. Paul’s influences, from The Beatles to Hendrix mixed with over 25 years of experience, have earned him almost legend status among the locals in S.E.

  • Star Shines at Shell
    May 24, 2014 Star Shines at Shell PHOTO BY YOSHI JAMES Homage to cult band’s “Third” kicks off Levitt series By Bob Mehr The Levitt Shell’s 2014 summer season opened Friday night, with a teeming crowd of roughly 4,000 who camped out under clear skies to hear the music of Memphis’ greatest cult band Big Star, in a show dedicated to its dark masterpiece, Third. Performed by an all-star troupe of local and national musicians, it was yet another reminder of how the group, critically acclaimed but commercially doomed during their initial run in the early 1970s, has developed into one of the unlikeliest success stories in rock and roll. The Third album — alternately known as Sister Lovers — was originally recorded at Midtown’s Ardent Studios in the mid-’70s, but vexed the music industry at the time, and was given a belated, minor indie-label release at the end of the decade. However, the music and myth of Third would grow exponentially in the decades to come. When it was finally issued on CD in the early ’90s, the record was hailed by Rolling Stone as an “untidy masterpiece ... beautiful and disturbing, pristine and unkempt — and vehemently original.” 1 North Carolina musician Chris Stamey had long been enamored of the record and the idea of recreating the Third album (along with full string arrangements) live on stage. He was close to realizing a version of the show with a reunited, latter- day Big Star lineup, when the band’s camp suffered a series of losses: first, with the passing of Third producer Jim Dickinson in 2009, and then the PHOTO BY YALONDA M.

  • SOUTHERN AVENUE Southern Avenue March 2016
    SOUTHERN AVENUE Southern Avenue March 2016 If Memphis music is a genre, this is it. One part virtuosic blues guitar, one part powerhouse gospel vocals. Season with soul, jazz, and of course – a whole lot of rock’n’roll. This is Southern Avenue, and they’re serving up a sampling with their debut EP this spring. The band takes its name from a Memphis street that runs from the eastern-most part of the city limits all the way to Soulsville. It’s a fitting moniker for this diverse four-piece: two sisters whose musi- cal education came from the Church (Tierinii and TK Jackson), a jazz bassist (Daniel McKee) and an Israeli-born guitarist who grew up a student of the blues (Ori Naftaly). Southern Avenue’s self-titled EP – which the band will indepen- dently release first to local fans in February, followed by a na- February 1, 2016 tional release in the spring – is a “true debut,” says lead guitarist Lead single “What Did I Do?” Naftaly. Indeed, these five songs provide a glimpse of Southern Full EP out this spring Avenue’s range and an introduction to the band’s point of view. They take on a diverse mix of styles with ease, an indication of the myriad sounds that may be to come. From the swinging rock and soul of lead single “What Did I Do” to the blissed-out, jam-band feel of “Wild Flower” to the traditional blues on “80 Miles From Memphis,” at the center of it all is the electric interplay between Naftaly’s guitar and the rich gospel vo- cal of Tierinii Jackson.

  • North Mississippi Allstars: up and Rolling
    North Mississippi Allstars: Up and Rolling A forgotten roll of film inspired a musical accompaniment, the North Mississippi Allstars’ new record Up and Rolling. Shot before the turn of the century, the photographs resonate with the music of four families from the Mississippi hills. The album captures the communal spirit upon which the band was founded. In 1996, a photographer from Texas, Wyatt McSpadden, traveled to North Mississippi looking to photograph local musicians. Brothers Luther and Cody Dickinson had grown up just south of Memphis and cut their teeth playing experimental rock & roll together, as well as the roots repertoire pioneered by their father, Jim Dickinson, a legendary producer (Big Star, the Replacements) and session player (Rolling Stones, Bob Dylan). Their feet were firmly planted in the North Mississippi mud and music scene, and they were excited to show Wyatt around their community, to introduce him to the musical families of Otha Turner, RL Burnside and Junior Kimbrough. Their first stop was Otha Turner’s farm. Then in his late eighties, he was the last living fife and drum musician in the hills—“and a friend to all,” Luther exclaims. “He looked sharp that day, still in his Sunday best and ready for a good time.” They all sat together on Otha’s fabled front porch, which was something like a classroom for the elder Dickinson brother. The two would sit for hours, the kid playing guitar while the old man made up lyrics on the spot. That’s how “Call That Gone” came into the world, decades before the Allstars recorded it for Up and Rolling.

Washington, DC. The Big Boy Little Band made it to the finals of the 26th Annual International Blues Challenge sponsored by the Blues Foundation in the “Capital of the Blues,” Memphis, TN on January 21-23, 2010. After two nights of competition with over one-hundred bands from 39 states and 14 countries, they ultimately reached the top eleven in a blazing finale held Saturday night, January 23rd, in the historic Orpheum Theater on famous Beale Street. Billed as “The World’s Largest Gathering of Blues Bands,” these bands vied for the top honor, industry recognition and prizes including cash, appearances at major blues festivals and coveted spots on the “Legendary Rhythm and Blues Cruise.” The contest has helped launch the careers of nationally known blues artists such as Susan Tedeschi, Tommy Castro, Watermelon Slim, Zac Harmon and the late Sean Costello. Big Boy’s young guitarist, 26 year-old Matt Kelley, won the coveted Albert King Guitar award for the top guitarist after a sizzling solo on the band's version of BB King's "How Blue Can You Get". "I was shocked.” Kelley said afterwards. “I have never in my life seen so many good bands in one place. That I won the same Albert King Award that guys like Sean Carney won seems unreal.” "To be in the top eleven of blues bands from all over the world is something I never expected," says Big Boy Little.

When Philip Price and Flora Reed combine their voices beautifully, stunning things happen.

Shakey Graves (Saturday 7:35pm @ Green River Stage) Shakey Graves is the moniker of Alejandro Rose-Garcia from Austin, Texas.
