Blue Trash

With âBlue Trashâ the Spikedrivers have taken all of their many and highly diverse influences and blended them into something that is uniquely their own. With their roots still firmly in the delta they have managed to create a sound that is traditional, very contemporary and unlike anything youâve heard before.

The fourteen original tracks showcase their considerable abilities as musicians, songwriters and arrangers. The atmospheric title track consists of no more than vocals, guitar, udu drum and washboard while tractor-driven âThe Massey Ferguson Bluesâ is the other end of the scale. An in-your-face out and out slide guitar stomper.

Guitarist Ben Tyzack is the main vocalist and songwriter but bassist Constance Redgrave and drummer/percussionist Maurice McElroy share lead vocal and song writing duties. Constance with the torchy âYou Donât Careâ and âGrampa Was A Moonshinerâ, an angry take on her familyâs experience of the Depression, and Mauriceâs light-hearted takes on modern life, âWhere Did The Money Go?â and âJunk Mail Bluesâ.

Tyzackâs exceptional slide and finger picking guitar work is complemented perfectly by the rock-solid rhythm section of Redgrave and McElroy. These guys have paid their dues and it shows. At the same time they never let the playing get in the way of the songs.

The album was recorded at the Helioscentric studio in East Sussex, UK. An old fashioned 16 track analogue studio with the original desk that Island Records used to record Bob Marley and John Martyn on in the seventies. Their co-producer and sound engineer, Phill Brown, is a legend in his own right having been the Island house engineer during that time and who has recorded just about everybody from the early Rolling Stones to Dido.

ââ¦the atmosphere the band is able to create around its music is nothing less than remarkable.â
Blues Revue USA
