The Cadillac Kings serve up 15 tracks of swinging, jumpin' rhythm & blues on Trouble In Store, an album steeped in the sounds of 1940s and 1950s West Coast blues, jump blues and rock 'n' roll. Blending the spirit of vintage blues with original songs, sharp humour and a distinctly British personality, this is music made for dancing, jiving and anyone who likes their blues with plenty of swing.
The band's musical approach draws on the harmonica-driven blues of James Harman and Rod Piazza, the guitar finesse of Junior Watson and the witty, streetwise songwriting associated with Rick Estrin. From “She's My Sugar Rush” and “Hot Rod V8 Ford” to “North Sea Jump” and “Chain Gang Boogie”, the 15-track collection moves through lively grooves, bluesy guitar work and good-time rhythms. The album was also recognised by Canada's Real Blues magazine, which named it the best non-American CD of 2009.
For fans of vintage rhythm & blues, jump blues, swing and roots-driven rock 'n' roll, Trouble In Store captures The Cadillac Kings bringing classic influences to original material with musical skill and a wicked sense of humour. Whether you're already familiar with the band or discovering them for the first time, this CD belongs in any collection celebrating the livelier side of blues and the enduring connection between jump blues and rock 'n' roll.
