Austin TX-based Black Joe Lewis has just released a new album,Electric Slave (Vagrant Records), and is back on the road with a full tour to support, including an October 1st date in the Mainroom at First Avenue in Minneapolis.
Though the band remains the same, they’ve dropped the “and the Honeybears” from their name, but still retain the blues/garage sound that first brought them national acclaim. Think a cross of James Brown and Screamin’ Jay Hawkins fronting The Stooges and you’re part of the way there in describing their sound.
For a ferocious guitar night of funk, soul and fuzz rock, Black Joe Lewis has turned up their wall of sound, in hopes of getting your attention, which won’t disappoint, if the lead single, ‘Skulldiggin’, is any indication. Seattle-based indie-soul sextet Pickwick opens on the Midwest dates, and are worth arriving early for as well.
