Congratulations
By Blues Boys | February 20, 2008
Blues Boys Talent wishes to congratulate Ben Prestage on taking 2nd place in the International Blues Challenge!
Born the grandson of a Mississippi sharecropper, Ben Prestage has been soaked in Blues tradition and Mississippi culture since birth. Growing up in the swamps of south central Florida, Prestage began to mix Mississippi Country Blues with his own brand of Florida Swamp Blues. This muddy- water- meets- black- water stew has led him to perform from California to the Carolinas to the Florida Keys, in large festivals, every kind of bar, and sometimes on downtown sidewalks.

Eddie Kirkland releases his best CD yet!
By Blues Boys | July 3, 2007
 Here’s an album that is a collaboration of talent, creativity, and dedication! For all those fans who have heard Kirkland perform such songs as Make Love to Your Brain and Big TV Screen on stage, here’s the opportunity to hear them in your own space. Twelve never before recorded tracks are now set down skillfully through an act of sheer belief that Kirkland’s Blues must be heard. Chris McDermott, who toured with Kirkland in the 80’s dedicated his time, music, and studio to the recording. McDermott says, “I hope we have at least captured some of Kirkland’s spirit and fearless creativity. EK is connected to the well spring! Listen and Learn” |

Howard & the White Boys
By Blues Boys | May 24, 2007
Made in Chicago represents the zenith of the band’s recorded output, and it’s certainly the disc that Howard & the White Boys are most proud of. While the band hasn’t recorded in six years, they’ve been gigging continuously throughout the U.S. and Europe and this has lent their trademark brand of contemporary blues an indomitable tightness brimming with raw power.
