A new blues-rock guitarist? Yes.
Hey man, anything new here? No.
Then why should I give this album a listen?
Ryan "Bluwrath" Newman (Chester, Connecticut, 1996) makes his debut with an album that offers his own interpretation of the blues through the classic songs that have inspired him the most. His statement isn't about what he plays—it's about how he plays it.
Technically speaking, his Stratocaster doesn't introduce us to some supernatural. Instead, it reveals a musician deeply immersed in an abyss of originality, emotion, and genuine connection. Reinterpreting classic songs is often the easy route for an artist, but that's not the case with Newman. He embraces the legacy of the blues and transforms it into something newly inspired. He's not afraid to draw from pop or reggae either, enriching his music with a timeless quality shaped by everything that has influenced him.
The result is an artist defined by honesty, intensity, and authenticity. Ryan "Bluwrath" Newman isn't just another blues-rock guitarist. Listen to his guitar work and his vocals on these tracks, and you'll discover a fresh ingredient in the secret recipe—one that not even every chef in the finest restaurants has. No tips accepted.
