***********

Recorded side-by-side, live in the studio, the CD captures the raw energy and rhythmic pulse typical of a live performance. Jeff Ray (vocals/resonator slide-guitar) & Hurricane Harold's (harmonica) unique take on old-time roots and blues music is refreshing with original songs that have an undefinable and unpredictable sound yet maintain a familiar americana roots music feel. The six covers on CARRIAGE HOUSE SESSIONS are deep cuts, from eras long forgotten, making the songs sound a bit more relevant with an old-school twist.

In 2010, Jeff Ray & Hurricane Harold won first place in the Greater Twin Cities Blues Society’s ‘Road to Memphis’
competition. They were selected to represent Minnesota at the 2011 International Blues Challenge in Memphis, TN and recorded CARRIAGE HOUSE SESSIONS to raise money and celebrate their trip to Memphis.
