Down In Louisiana

2013 album from the Blues legend, a stripped set that will remind listeners of the original sound of the Delta Blues. Says Bobby Rush: "This album started in the swamps and the juke joints, where my music started, and it's also a brand new thing. Fifty years ago I put Funk together with down-home Blues to create my own style. Now, with Down in Louisiana, I've done the same thing with Cajun, Reggae, Pop, Rock and Blues, and it all sounds only like Bobby Rush.. .But no matter how much I cross over, whether it's to a larger white audience or to college listeners or fans of Americana, I'll never cross out who I am and where I've come from, my music's always gonna be funky and honest, and it's always gonna sound like Bobby Rush." Produced by Paul Brown, who is also Rush's keyboard player, the album was recorded at Ocean Soul Studios.
