A Bothered Mind

R.L. Burnside

This project shows a willingness to test the limits of the blues genre. By using electronic production, the music bridges the gap between ancient sounds and current experimentation.

Fat Possum Records aimed to push the genre into a modern context during this period. The collision of slide guitar and studio effects produces a gritty, unique atmosphere.
