Flash-A-Magic

Bloodshot is proud to welcome acclaimed folk-blues singer/songwriter Luke Winslow-King back to the label with Flash-A-Magic.

The new album contines Luke’s world-wandering evolution, from Michigan to New Orleans to Spain, absorbing and integrating his experiences and collaborations to create something unique and new. Flash-A-Magic is co-produced by Tuscan Slide Guitar Maestro Roberto Luti—a founding member of the Playing For Change band who has collaborated with legends such as Taj Mahal, Keb Mo, Keith Richards, Ringo Starr, Dr. John and accumulated over 100 million plays on YouTube. His unorthodox, angular and evocative slide guitar style is based on Mississippi and Chicago blues and is infused by soul and African roots traditions and perfectly compliments Winslow-King’s musical ambitions.

The duo’s partnership reaches back more than 15 years to it’s beginnings on the streets of New Orleans, and has taken them to dozens of countries around the world. Their approach to rural and hill country blues contains a certain reverence, a respect, and a bittersweetness not often heard in the modern day. The new album features several co-writes and showcases the unique style and dynamic synergy they have fostered.
