This is The Blues with a 21st Century twist. It's raw, ragged, heartfelt, melancholy and often joyous too.
BluesMundi sings about old Nokia phones that don't go online, paying bills with Bitcoin, having a chip under your skin to get on a train and the joys of disconnecting from a network to talk face-to-face, something that seems particularly relevant at the moment.
As well as the originators such as Charlie Patton, Mississippi John Hurt and the legendary Robert Johnson, BluesMundi is both inspired by and in thrall to British blues artists of the 60s such as John Mayall and Peter Green's Fleetwood Mac. More recent influences include Jack White, Larkin Poe and Bon Iver.
BluesMundi is a new British artist playing 21st century acoustic Alt Blues.
By going right back to the beginnings of the genre, using acoustic guitars, vocals and little else whilst singing about themes that affect modern everyday life, BluesMundi creates a uniquely contemporary British AltBlues with an indie sensibility that sets it apart from anything else that is happening right now.
