CEDRIC BURNSIDE, grandson of the legendary R.L. Burnside, son of drummer great Calvin Jackson, is widely regarded as one of the best drummers in the world. Growing up at his grandfathers side, he began touring at age 13, playing drums for "Big Daddy" on stages around the globe. Cedric was born in 1978 and raised around Holly Springs,Mississippi, and has been playing music all his life, developing a relentless, highly rhythmic charged style with strong hip-hop and funk influences. In addition to "Big Daddy," Cedric has also played with Kenny Brown, North Mississippi Allstars, Burnside Exploration, Bobby Rush and many others. In 2006 he was featured in the movie "Black Snake Moan," playing drums alongside Samuel L. Jackson.
Cedric has teamed up with guitarist Lightnin Malcolm to form the Juke Joint Duo, proving to be a powerful vocalist and great songwriter. Cedric is a special talent that has brought new life and energy to the blues, and is loved by fans around the world.
Bluesman LIGHTNIN MALCOLM is one of the leading younger generation artists on the scene today. Born in 1974 in Missouri, Malcolm, a reckless live performer, has lived and breathed music his whole life, traveling and playing in a slashing rythmic style, with deep soulful vocals. Malcolm has played over the years with the best Mississippi Blues artists, such as Cedell Davis, R.L. Burnside, Jessie Mae Hemphill, T Model Ford, Jr. Kimbrough, Robert Belfour, Big Jack Johnson, Sam Carr and Otha Turner. Skilled on guitar, bass, or drums Malcolm is an in demand session player with a telepathic sense of how to follow the older archaic styles, and is especially noted for his old fashioned, church "shout" style on drums.
In 2005, Malcolm released his first album "Juke Joint Dance Party," and that summer it was the No.1 requested artist on XM Satelite Radio. Now that he has joined forces with powerhouse drummer/vocalist Cedric Burnside, look out for their highly anticipated first release "Juke Joint Duo." Lightnin Malcolm is considered an expert on juke-joint lifestyle and lives the songs he sings.

Saw the Juke joint duo play with Jimmy Buffet in chicago this summer and they were amazing. I purchased this cd as a gift for someone who plays in a jazz and blues band and they loved it. Couldn't be happier!

« Monstrueusement hypnotique »
author: Erick Diard
Burnside, un nom certainement difficile à porter dans le monde du Juke blues, voire du blues tout court, difficile pour tout autre que Cédric, parce qu’en ce qui concerne ce Burnside là, petit fils de RL, fils de Calvin Jackson, ben l’arrive équipé d’un sacré talent, pour sur que l’adage « les chiens font pas des chats » s’applique total au jeune homme. Talent qu’il commence à développer dès sa plus tendre enfance et c’est à 13 ans qu’il prend la route, solidement installé derrière ses fûts accompagnant son illustre « Big Daddy », les North Mississippi Allstars, Burnside Exploration ou encore Bobby Rush, etc.… Un temps égaré dans le Hip Hop et le funk il nous revient en compagnie de Malcolm « l’éclair », autre petit prodige nourri aux racines du Juke Roots, élève de l’illustre Jimbo Mathus qui lui a inculqué ce qu’était le pur blues, celui près de l’os, sans fioriture mais total envoûtant, hypnotique, le cru le rugueux, leçons qu’il a expérimenté et rodé au contact de Jr. Kimbrough, Robert Belfour, RL Burnside sans oublier Big Jack Johnson et d’autres encore… Donc reprenant le flambeau nos deux compères nous offrent une régalade de tunes de Juke blues, 12 originaux envoûtants, hypnotiques délivrés par une véritable machine à rythme, tournant à pleine puissance, drivée avec autorité, que seul un immense talent autorise, par la batterie de Cédric relayée avec fureur et une dynamique virtuosité par un Malcolm Lighnin’ non moins dénué de talent. Ces deux là font une formidable paire et s’avèrent être de très bons chanteurs, leurs compos sont riches, graveleuses comme il se doit dans ce style, marrantes ou encore un peu sombres mais totale intéressantes et que ce soit Cédric ou Malcolm de très haute facture…
Une expérience qui j’espère ne va pas en rester là et qui va rapidement faire des petits, et redonner un regain d’énergie au Juke Joint style…
Une grande régalade à ne pas bouder

2 Man Wrecking Crew
author: Dave King, Cross Harp Chronicles
If you liked this CD, you\'ll love their newest. Entitled 2 Man Wrecking Crew on Delta Groove Music.com. Having received an advance copy of this newest release, I can tell you it is raw, it is primal, and with its repetitive Blues beat, it conjures up lustful images that will make you sweat. Grab a copy when it drops and work up a funk of your own.
