Award-winning singer/songwriter/harmonica player Curtis Salgado and revered Portland, OR guitarist Alan Hager team up for a stripped-down album of deep, intimate blues full of Curtis’ soul-shaking vocals and impassioned harp playing and Alan’s exquisite way with a fretboard. Curtis, a multiple Blues Music Award-winner has been playing blues and soul-powered R&B for over 40 years. He and Alan Hager have been making music together since 2003. In 2015, Hager joined Salgado’s band full-time as lead guitarist.
ROUGH CUT features six original numbers imbued with the spirit of the blues’ greatest traditions and seven vibrant takes on classic songs by Elmore James, Muddy Waters, Son House and more. The songs range from front porch acoustic finger-picking to swaggering Chicago shuffles and dark, swampy blues, as Curtis and Alan play with the joy of kids in a candy store, delighting in the rich, captivating legacy of the blues.
