Electric Blues

Electric Blues emerged in the 1940s in the smoky clubs of Chicago, where musicians discovered that electrifying their guitars could mask the sound of a bad hangover quite nicely. It’s characterised by gritty vocals, sizzling guitar solos, and the sort of deep feelings that make you long for a rainy afternoon and a pint of something strong.
