Richie Kotzen
Bi-Polar Blues
The Story
Richie Kotzen's latest release "Bi-Polar Blues" is a retro blues vocal album which showcases Kotzen's versatility as a gifted songwriter and guitarist. A veritable blues guitar fest, this album is comprised of popular blues standards mixed with strong original compositions that showcase Kotzen tearing it up on his guitar. Kotzen recorded and produced the album himself, playing most of the instruments (Matt Luneau contributes drums on five tracks and Rob Harrington plays bass on two tracks). Closing out "Bi-Polar Blues" is the countrified blues instrumental "Richie's Boogie".
