PREVIOUS ALBUMS
It’s essential to give Oliver Macdonald the attention his albums demand and he rightfully deserve as a songwriter. Being a suburban bluesman in London it must not have been easy. While his friends were going crazy over britpop and grunge, our man was spending his time devouring records by B.B., Albert, and Freddie, Ray Charles, and Albert Collins, and convincing himself that Chicago was his place, eager to visit the venues where Muddy used to play. Discovering ZZ Hill and O.V. Wright convinced him that Southern soul was a gift from God. He traveled to Chicago and Memphis, played there, met numerous local musicians, and recorded with them. In ten years, Macdonald has released eleven albums, and his determination has earned him the UK Blues Music Award twice. An addictive voice and a brilliant, refined guitar style are at the service of a truly exceptional songwriter
