If These Walls Could Talk - CD

Singer, songwriter, and guitarist Luke Winslow-King has always maintained a strong sense of place. Throughout his virtuosic, prodigious career, Winslow-King’s music and identity have been bound with places like New Orleans and Northern Michigan. His earliest records sonically captured the Crescent City with pick-slap playing, jazz, and old-time influences; his more recent works seemed to reflect the sounds of both the North’s urban blues and folk-filled farmland.

Due out May 6, 2022 via Memphis-based Ghost River Records, If These Walls Could Talk is a loose, vibrant record that’s his most defiant to date.  Recorded in January 2020 at Memphis Magnetic Recording Co., Winslow-King united long-time friends and performers from Italy, New York, Michigan, and New Orleans. The band — which features Italian blues guitar maestro Roberto Luti — tracked live with producer Domi
