| Doe Boy releases "Down Right Mad" It all began for Doe Boy from the basement of his mother's house when he was 19 years of age. He had been in some bands in high school but made the decision to go solo. His style of choice is Southern Blues with a bit of Jazz mix in. Taking the same route as Muddy Waters, B.B. King and other blues artists, Doe Boy began to write what he knew about and he does it like the greats of their time. The wailing from the guitar, the expression of its sound, the screaming of the strings – all cry in harmony. Add in those raw vocals and you have the best Blues I have heard in decades. Doe Boy is proud to announce the release of his single "Down Right Mad" which is off his yet to be released CD titled "Curtis C. Presents Acoustic Series Blues Vol. 1". Just listening to this single is all you need. It tells a story of having to do without when he was a young man. He learned his lessons the hard way and yet in the end, nothing seemed to have changed. Its motto is being careful the games you choose to play because the game just might win in the end. As are all the songs on this CD, you can grab yourself a glass of wine, sit back, and experience his extraordinary music as he brings you into his world. Although his topics are of an adult nature, he is careful not to be verbally offensive to either children or elders. What is so unique with his songs is their flow. It is that mellow undertone of hip-hop and R & B that you can hear in the distance while keeping the integrity of the strength of the Blues and Jazz intact. "Curtis C. Presents Acoustic Series Blues Vol. 1" is set for release in the spring of 2012. Pre-releases of singles such as "Down Right Mad" just fuels the desire for music like this. It will be released in digital format and can be purchased at any digital storefront. The physical format is not out of the question. A prior release was an underground record called "Ghetto Blues" which contains two characters; vocals and guitar. Nothing else needed. Doe Boy works outside the box. He has the belief that people need a new edge to music – a new old style. This reasoning allows Doe Boy to "dig into his roots and step out of the mainstream and give people an alternate choice of just great music", states Doe Boy. Doe Boy is working on four songs with Paramount. He is also working on his next project. Doe Boy is currently working with A & R Select based in Beverly Hills, Ca. for licensing, publishing, a record deal and/or placement opportunities. write your comments about the article :: © 2012 Jazz News :: home page |
