American Swamp Music : The Black Tongued Bells

With guitars as thick as molasses, The Black Tongued Bells debuted on a good-time Thursday. Heavy and rockin', BTB drag their blues on the ground - picking up soulful grit - then they smooth it out with inviting grooves and vocal harmonies. The boogie piano, gospel organ and harmonica are all part of the BTB sound. Their version of (Bee-Gees) "To Love Somebody" was way deep and beauty-full.
