yee-ha! a blues and country special (only joking!) this week on the 'sHRiMP broacast live on Resonance104.4FM in London (5 - 6.30pm) and streaming from www.resonancefm.com

from Toledo, Ohio via Detroit we welcome radical blues collective the Soledad Brothers in for a live session - Benjamin Swank (drums) & Johnny Walker (guitar, vocals) along with Oliver Henry (electric piano, sax, etc) have been part of the hot Detroit rock'n'roll scene since the late 90s (first album produced by Jack White) - beautiful trashy, dirty punk-blues. catch them at the Spitz in London after the show (1/3). www.soledadbrothers.com www.myspace.com/soledadbrothers


we also welcome country singer-songwriter Hayes Carll - this 28-year-old Texan has recently issued his second album 'Little Rock' which true to his maverick mentality was released on his own Highway 87 label - a relentless gigger, Hayes has been over here for a short tour with Buddy Miller and has a solo London show following this radio session (1/3) at the Luminaire in Kilburn - a London show with Buddy Miller is on thursday (2/3) at Bush Hall. www.hayescarll.com www.myspace.com/hayescarll
