2009 Albert King
Award & IBC Winner
J.P. Soars
“His
gravelly vocals and crisp guitar ride splendid backing tracks….
Soars originals display
wit in
the straight-four-strummed ‘Baby I Used To Love You,’ vigor in the
jumping ‘Born in
California, Raised in Arkansas,’ and sweet soul in ‘Will I Ever’.”
Blues Revue
“JP
Soars is one of a kind! His ability to take all of his musical
experiences and influences
and
develop them into his own unique style is nothing short of amazing.
Along with his solid
rhythm
section, The Red Hots, this band turns up the heat wherever they go!
The 2009 IBC
win was
not a surprise to fans here in South Florida, we knew the rest of
the world would
want in
on this rising star.”

Albert Castiglia These Are The Days (Blues Leaf Records)
This is a flat out, hands down, unconditionally great record. Notice
I didn’t say it was great blues record: Over 11 cuts, Castiglia
covers everyone from Bob Dylan to Little Willie John. He gives
“Night Time Is the Right Time” his best Ray Charles Treatment – you
can practically see the background vocalist swaying in their
fish-nets. “Celebration” is a “Pink Houses” for those who’ve lost
faith in corporate rock, and “Need Your Love So Bad” features Susan
Lusher’s quivering church organ accompaniment to Castiglia’s
scorpion like sting lead guitar. His vocals sound like he’s twice as
old as we know he is.
Castiglia, who was Junior Wells’ last lead guitarist, is the
Miami-bred son of a Cuban mother and an Italian father. He’s played
everywhere from European capital cities to Gulf Coast sports bars,
where he competed against flat-screen televisions on Kentucky Derby
Day. The result is a tough-as-nails 30-something industry veteran
who knows where to leave spaces between the notes and sings like
he’s the love child of Dr. John and Joe Ely.
He does it all, from the muscular Ronnie Baker brooks-like “Another
Bloody Day” to “Blues for Evan” which sounds like Castiglia’s
standing next to Elmore James and inventing the electric guitar on
the spot. “Godfather of the Blues” pays homage to Wells from the
perspective of someone who played with him until he was on his
deathbed, and “Bad Year Blues” opens the album with one of the best
original lines since Willie Dixon passed: “It’s a real bad year/Only
12 more months to go.” - Don Wilcock
