CHARLIE MUSSELWHITE WENT ON TOUR WITH BEN HARPER’S BAND, WHICH LED HIS GUITARIST, MATTHEW STUBBS, TO FORM GA-20. IT WAS 2018, AND THIS ELECTRIC, ECLECTIC, AND AMBITIOUS TRIO HIT THE STUDIOS AND STAGES WITH A FORCE THAT SURPRISED EVERYONE. STUBBS–NILSEN–KIGGANS BECAME A CULT FAVORITE AMONG FANS, JUST TWO GUITARS AND A DRUM KIT DEFYING AN INDUSTRY THAT HADN’T SEEN THEM COMING. WE’VE SPENT EIGHT YEARS WITH GA-20, AND WE’RE STILL TAKING IT ALL IN. THE RAW BLUES THAT HOUND DOG TAYLOR ONCE FORETOLD HAS COME TO LIFE AGAIN, NOW THROUGH THE GRACE OF THREE VISIONARIES WHO SEE NO LINE BETWEEN RESILIENT BLUES AND GRITTY, UNRELENTING ROCK & ROLL. GA-20 FOLLOW NO LOGIC AND DON’T CLING TO ACCEPTED MODELS. THEIR MUSIC PULLS US INTO A VISCERAL REALITY OF ROOTS MUSIC. NOTHING NEW, NOTHING OLD ON THE HORIZON — YOU EITHER LIKE THEM OR YOU DON’T. GA-20 ARE CONCEPTUAL REVOLUTIONARIES, A BAND WHOSE SOUND LEAVES NO LISTENER INDIFFERENT. EIGHT YEARS HAVE PASSED SINCE THEIR BREAKTHROUGH, AND THE FANS’ RESPONSE SPEAKS THROUGH THEIR LIVE SHOWS, DEVOTED CROWDS FILLING EVERY VENUE THEY PLAY, EMBRACING EACH NEW ALBUM WITH ALMOST SUPERNATURAL ENTHUSIASM. GA-20 HAVE THE MAGIC TO INSPIRE WITH EVERY STEP THEY TAKE FORWARD.
