Thursday 16 July 2009 at 07:15 PM - Morleland and Arbuckle in Coburg
Posted by: Bruce Category: Other Blues Shows Contact: bruce@kingstonbluessociety.ca
When: Thursday 16 July 2009 at 07:15 PM Ends: Thursday 16 July 2009 at 11:55 PM
Location: North Side Grill - Coburg
When this tight Mississippi Hill Country Blues influenced 3 piece came through Cobourg to a private show in March, they brought the house down, playing 3 and a half hours of cranked up Mississippi Blues a la RL Burnside and Junior Kimbrough, blended in with their own ideas and old souls. They will be performing at the Northside Grill 92 King West in Cobourg on Thursday July 16th 9:15 pm (special southern menu that night, call the North Side for details and tickets at 905-377-9709). Friday July 17th at 8pm will see them at the legendary Wilno Tavern, Highway 60 between Barrys' Bay and Killaloe. Phone 613-756-2029 for tickets and info. Tickets for all shows always available at Zap Records 20 King Street East Cobourg, phone 905-372-8231 for tickets and details or toll free at 1-877-562-2222. Here is what the critics are saying about Moreland and Arbuckle.... "In Moreland & Arbuckle, Aaron Moreland, along with singer/harpist Dustin Arbuckle, whips his strings and melts the windings with his slide on '1861' (NorthernBlues). The pride of Kansas plays Hill Country stomps like his life depends on it. These guys are Blues Legends in the making!" -Guitar Edge Magazine "Totally fresh and thought engaging! If these boys can slug it out, they'll one day be house hold names." -90.1 FM KPFT Houston " Dustin Arbuckle's powerful vocals and passionate harmonica and Aaron Moreland's passionate and frequently rockish and raunchy guitar solos sound like they could have come straight from the Delta." -Allmusic 4 1/2 Stars "1861 is one of the finest newest releases of 2008." - Ben Cox, Blues Blast

Pickett embraces the Blues with style, substance and integrity. In the 70s, 80s, and 90s he established himself as a musically ground-breaking, electrifying singer/songwriter/harmonica player, leading seminal bands Whiskey Howl, Wooden Teeth, and the Michael Pickett Band. These bands pushed the envelope for Blues and funky Roots music. He provided the direction for all three projects, surrounding himself with the top musicians in the country. 1998 saw the release of his long anticipated and eagerly awaited debut CD, Blues Money. This all original recording was nominated for a JUNO and received the Jazz Report and Real Blues awards for 'Blues Album of the Year'. Michael was also presented with the coveted Maple Blues 'Blues With A Feeling Award' in recognition of his passion and lifetime commitment to the Blues. In 2000 he released his second CD Conversation With The Blues which earned another JUNO nomination and won the Indie Music Award for 'Blues Album of the Year'. Described by Billboard as "transcending the urban Blues idiom", it is an eclectic mix of ten originals comprised of Blues, R&B, Soul, Jazz, Delta, and Gospel.
He has played and/or shared the stage with Big Mama Thornton . John Lee Hooker . James Cotton . Jeff Healey . Bo Diddley . Koko Taylor . Downchild Blues Band . John Hammond . Matt "Guitar" Murphy .
