Ain’t Nothing But the Blues
I was happy to see that a friendly face and talented musician has returned to our little Chattanooga music scene. Honestly, I like it when people leave and come back. It helps to refresh a concept or gain new perspective and then bring it back to your original launching pad with a pad full of your own new ideas. It allows for less opportunity to become stagnant, bitter, or jaded.
I couldn’t be happier to see Husky Burnette back in action. The band consists of Mark Merritt and Burma Shave on drums, and Robert Grier on upright bass and harp, with Husky on guitar and vocals. I am a fan of blues, particularly the funky rock spin Husky adds onto the bayou beats. If you’ve heard it, you know exactly what I mean.
Hellcat: So what’s your deal?
Husky Burnette: I bring older Mississippi delta blues sounds into the music in a new and different way. It’s by no means mainstream blues.
HC: What makes you different from other blues bands?
HB: I don’t think one certain thing makes me stand out from other bands in the genre more »
