The use of four lead vocalist means that you have a depth of timbre and approaches that is unique combined with spellbinding flute, saxes, trumpet, New Orleans style keys and let’s not forget the guitar and the stalwart rhythm section of bass, drums and percussion this is really a full sound where every instrument has its place and the combination of vocals harmonise with a natural ease driving the lyrics on. The sound is every shade of blue captured in a tin shaken not stirred creating a wall of delight that gets the blood coursing through your veins and your foot a tapping and definitely this is dancing blues of the highest calibre. “Stomp and Holler” may appear to be a new band but in reality there is long experience of the blues scene with six of the Midlands best known blues musicians that have joined together to bring a sound that is New Orleans plus some Midlands texture. This is music delivered with Joie de vivre delivering a range of sounds with a delectable combination of tones, instruments and vocal colour. This was fantastic feel-good music that brings the swamps, bayous and sunshine of the southern state into your room and brightens your mood.

When the CD arrived in its quirky box packaging of a circular metal box with text like a ‘Oil Doctors’ medicine man dodgy cure-all, to be honest a thought ran across my cynical mind – is this a gimmick to compensate for what should be the main act (the recorded music)? This is a time when Bluesdoodles has enjoyed being proved wrong, as soon as the music hit the speaker I knew I was in for an audio treat and the packaging was what it should be clever, quirky.
