No one in blues compares to young Florida-based guitarist Selwyn Birchwood. With the quality of his material, combined with a vibrant stage persona, theres no need to borrow tunes from the greats who went before him. Lean yet mean and toughlyrically and musically intense American SongwriterAlthough award-winning Florida musician Selwyn Birchwood is firmly rooted in the tradition, the young guitarist, lap steel player, songwriter and vocalist sets a course for the future of the blues with his visionary, original music. Birchwood, whose band features the pulsating interplay of his blistering guitar with Regi Olivers driving baritone sax, deploys a singular sound and style all his own. He calls it Electric Swamp Funkin Blues, an intoxicating mix of deep blues, blistering, psychedelic-tinged rock, booty-shaking funk and sweet Southern soul, played and sung with the fire-and-brimstone fervor of a revival tent preacher with a hellhound on his trail. Tastemaker Americana music magazine No Depression says, Selwyn Birchwood reaches back in the blues tradition to launch something out of this world.
