- Hill Country Blood is Kent Burnside’s electrifying commercial debut, carrying forward the legacy
- of his grandfather, R.L. Burnside, while carving out his own distinct voice in the blues world.
- Kent infuses his sound with a fiery dose of Blues-Rock energy and boldly reshapes the genre by
- blending the deep, hypnotic rhythms of Hill Country Blues with the raw energy of Blues-Rock,
- the soulful spirit of the Delta, and the urban grit of Chicago.The album features eight original
- tracks alongside powerful covers of John Lee Hooker’s Crawling King Snake and Junior
- Kimbrough’s You Better Run. With Kent on guitar and vocals, Garry Burnside on bass, Jake
- Best on drums, and Damian Pearson (aka Yella P of Memphisissippi) adding soulful
- harmonica, Hill Country Blood is a high-energy, deeply authentic blues experience that honors
- the past while charging into the future.
