jazzamatazz Posted November 9, 2010 Share Posted November 9, 2010 Friday 12th November Aynsley does not simply reheat the blues of yesteryear - no simple 12 bar numbers here. He produces songs with a contemporary feel and sound, infusing influences from the 1960’s blues boom era with a more current melodic & lyrical approach. Aynsley is one of very few artists playing rocking blues with a modern edge -tangible, heartfelt, soul searching and full of fine songwriting; played with passion, vitality and simply stunning guitar work, reminiscent of a young Clapton. In June’s edition of Classic Rock, in a live review, Pete Makowski wrote “Aynsley Lister is a precocious talent who looks like one of McFly and plays like Robert Johnson at volume 11” In another feature in “Classic Rock” magazine, they recommended 10 blues/rock artists capable of taking this genre of music to the highest level. Among those suggested were The White Stripes, John Meyer, Jonny Lang & Joe Bonasmasa. The only British or European act in their top ten was AYNSLEY LISTER Support from The Idle Hands Blues Band Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
