about
Marty Christian’s second CD, Underground Blues is part of a movement - bringing the Blues back to its creative roots Lafayette, LA guitarist Marty Christian first started to perform his barebones style of soulful acoustic Blues across Southwest Louisiana and Texas in 2001. Originally from Cleveland, OH, his first collection of original material, Bluesicana was released in 2006. Christian became the guitarist for Blues piano legend, Henry Gray and the Cats in 2008. Now with his second CD, Underground Blues (2009), an acoustic collection of Delta inspired originals, Marty continues to hone his original blend of acoustic Blues improvisations with traditional roots. Together with fellow Henry Gray and the Cats band member, Andy Cornett, (who plays Harmonic on two tracks) Christian performs regularly in the South and beyond - honoring the great Blues masters who came before – not in repetition but in continuing their tradition of blending the old sounds with new ones – making songs that can never really be repeated from show to show User-contributed text is available under the Creative Commons By-SA License; additional terms may apply.
