This week:
MATTHEW DAVIDSON
and
The Band
GRAND MARQUIS 
SIT ONTHE COUCH

Prior to this years International Blues challenge I learned of one of the entrants into the Youth Showcase. His name is Matthew Davidson and, at the time he was 12-years old. The evening he played I was there in the front row next to his beaming mom and dad.

Matthew held the audience’s attention as he stood alone with a mic and his electric guitar and played and sang, his skills evident to all in attendance.

He has played with Kenny Wayne Shepherd and Honeyboy Edwards. He has appeared at the Delta Blues Fest and the B.B. King Museum.

I will get to chat with Matthew and talk about this journey that began with a toy guitar at the age of three. We will also share some music from Matthew and his band and it is with a band that Matthew’s skills really shine.

Then I get to sit with the Ben Ruth (upright bass and tuba) and Bryan Redmond (vocals, saxophones), from the band The Grand Marquis.

Along with band members Lisa McKensie (percussion), Ryan Wurtz (guitar) and Chad Boydston (trumpet) they were finalists at this years International Blues Challenge and put on one hell of a show.

With a sound that hearkens back to the Nawlins speak-easys or 1950's Memphis, you will fall in love with The Grand Marquis. Swing, jazz, blues, you can call it what you'd like. I just call it great. I know there is a cool dancing show on while we are, The Grand Marquis could add the music for the dancers!

We will take your calls and questions for both guests at 1.347.633.9400.

The live interactive chat room opens 20 minutes before show time. Follow this link HERE and click on the Chat Now icon. Come hang with the fans and musicians who visit each week.

Remember, unless you take the two minutes to register, you will not be able to participate in the chat room or send me questions to ask our guests, but you will still hear the show.

So tune in on Monday evening or remember, you can always listen anytime after the show ends from the player HERE or check out Music On The Couch for additional artist information, and show recaps.

You can download to your iTunes and even subscribe to the show for weekly automatic downloads, from my iTunes page.

Thanks -
