After twenty plus years as a sideman contributing to other artists (Albert King, Johnnie Johnson, Tommy Castro, E.C. Scott, Mitch Woods, Larry "Arkansas" Davis, Sy Klopps and Rhythmtown­Jive), he is stepping into the spotlight with his first album as a leader. These years have been an education in American roots music that has helped to form his melting­pot sound, as witnessed on this project. Blues man Peloquin plays harmonica, saxophone & sings on this rip roarin' album with arrangements that echo the greats from Louis Jordan to Stax/Volt to Tower Of Power; the horns add a punchy fullness & his vocals are expressive & gritty. A must have for all blues lovers!

Featuring special guests: Tommy Castro, (Blind Pig Recs), Mitch Woods (Blind Pig Recs), Larry Batiste, and Steve Freund (Delmark Recs)
