THE FIRST TWO ALBUMS RELEASED BY THE EDDIE KOLD BAND WERE RECORDED IN CHICAGO AND FEATURED CONTRIBUTIONS FROM RENOWNED ARTISTS SUCH AS VANCE KELLY, BERNARD ALLISON, TOM HOLLAND, AND OMAR COLEMAN. A GUITARIST AND COMPOSER FROM COLOGNE, EDDIE KOLD HAS SPENT LONG PERIODS IN CHICAGO SINCE THE MID-1980S, A CITY WHERE HE HAS PERFORMED REGULARLY. THE BAND IS FIRMLY ROOTED IN SOUTH AND WEST SIDE BLUES, THE HALLMARKS OF THE CLASSIC CLUB SOUND FROM THAT PART OF THE CITY. AS A SIDEMAN FOR ZORA YOUNG, VANCE KELLY, BUSTER BENTON, AND L.V. BANKS, KOLD HAS PROVEN HIMSELF TO BE A TOP-TIER GUITARIST IN THE SERVICE OF THE MOST TRADITIONAL TWELVE-BAR BLUES THAT DEFINE THE GENRE IN ITS WORLD CAPITAL. THIS THIRD ALBUM, BLUES IN MY HEART, WAS RECORDED IN GERMANY AND ONCE AGAIN FEATURES SINGER LARRY “DOC” WATKINS, A RELIABLE ASSET WHO ENSURES THAT THE SPIRIT OF MUDDY WATERS AND HOWLIN’ WOLF HOVERS OVER THE SONGS. THIS IS PURE CHICAGO BLUES FROM A SEASONED, FAITHFUL, AND HIGHLY COMPETITIVE GERMAN BLUESMAN. FROM EUROPE, WITH LOYALTY.
