The Roadhouse digs deep into the self-released blues of today?s young artists. Paxton Norris., Levve Town, Microwave Dave & The Nukes, Mary Bridget Davies Group, and Jimmy Bowskill are among the artists with a new view of blues, a new view of music technology, or both. They help make 363rd Roadhouse another satisfying hour of the finest blues you?ve never heard.

It?s warm in The Roadhouse Studios with snow just outside the window. And, an hour of new blues can generate plenty of heat. Trampled Under Foot. Carolyn Wonderland, Big Pete, Fleetwood Mac, and Dion help make a great case that the blues is alive and well. If it?s an hour of new blues, you can pretty well bet that it?s also an hour of the finest blues you?ve never heard - the 362nd Roadhouse.

This week, we salute the talent of Etta James, through tracks you may not hear elsewhere. But, it?s not all Etta. Little Freddie King, Studebaker John & The Hawks, Joe Louis Walker, Bryce Janey, and Monkeyjunk are out there waiting to compel uncontrollable chair-dancing. It?s an ubeatable combination and an unbeatable foundation for another hour of the finest blues you?ve never heard - the 36qst Roadhouse.

The 360th Roadhouse is a bag of gems - little surprises and shining moments spread across an hour. Larry McCray, Ruthie Foster, Johnny Nicholas, Shemekia Copeland, and the Reba Russell Band provide some very nice moments in the hour. And, as I always promise, it?s another hour of the finest blues you?ve never heard.

The 359th Roadhouse takes a little different turn, steering away from traditional blues with new blues sounds as the destination. Jason Ricci, Beverly McClellan, Tedeschi Trucks Band, Treasa Levasseur, and Nick Moss deliver that new sound in an interesting hour of our favorite musical genre. It?s another hour of the finest blues you?ve never heard - The Roadhouse.

The final Roadhouse hour of 2011 is filled with smooth blues. Little Hurricane, Shaun Murphy, Big George Jackson, Carolina Chocolate Drops, and Etta James end the year in smooth style. The 358th Roadhouse is an hour of blues with few rough edges and is also, of course, another hour of the finest blues you?ve never heard.

This week, we pay respects to the artists who passed in 2011. Big Jack Johnson, John-Alex Mason, George Mojo Buford, Doyle Bramhall, and Eddie Kirkland light up the little bandstand in the corner in this edition. With all due respect, the 357th Roadhouse really is another hour of the finest blues you?ve never heard.

It’s the final Christmas edition of The Roadhouse for 2011, with a holiday track in every set. I’ve also got music from the Blues Music Awards nominations list that was released this week. Big Pete, Mac Arnold’s Blues Revival, Johnny Rawls, Mary Flower, and Jackie Johnson lay down great blues around some great holiday blues tracks. It’s an ad-free hour fit for celebration and another hour of the finest blues you’ve never heard.

The 355th Roadhouse takes on holiday blues in more ways than one. I include several blues Christmas tracks. And, we express our own holiday blues at the passing of Hubert Sumlin with a full Sumlin set. Omar & The Howlers, Roomful of Blues, Savoy Brown, Oz Noy, and Tracy Nelson stand right out in this edition of The Roadhouse. Yet, they manage to leave plenty of room for a full stable of great blues tracks that fill another hour of the finest blues you’ve never heard.

Time flies in The Roadhouse. Matt Woods & The Thunderbolts, CC Bronson, Johnny Winter, Gary Smith, and Grandpa Elliott fill the hour with tracks that will move us closer to 2012 in great blues style. The end of the year is nearing, but one of the few remaining hours in 2011 is filled with the finest blues you’ve never heard: the 354th Roadhouse.

On a US holiday weekend, a Roadhouse Replay fills the plate. Super Chikan, John Nemeth, Robert Lockwood, Bobby Jones, and Mitch Kashmar escort Thanksgiving into The Roadhouse. And, we're always thankful for the blues. The 353rd Roadhouse is the 210th hour - another hour of the finest blues you've never heard.

The 352nd Roadhouse contains a pile of blues. As always, that pile is comprised of new stuff and a pretty wide mix of music. J.C. Rico, Louisiana Red & Little Victor’s Juke Joint, Harrison Kennedy, Oz Noy, and Eric Lindell round out the hour with debut music you haven’t heard in the show. And, it’s that freshness that makes this hour of The Roadhouse another hour of the finest blues you’ve never heard.

We’re stepping away from the strife and misery of the world to have a ball in the 350th Roadhouse. Keith B. Brown, The Kinsey Report, Matthew Curry & The Fury,  Buster Brown, and Nick Moss provide the shelter.

The 349th Roadhouse mixes up artists on small labels and large. Many of the tracks are also less than a month old, or less than a month ahead of release. Big Pete, Cash Box Kings, The Sugar Prophets, Sista Monica Parker, and Big Walter Horton pave the way for an hour of blues that I think you’ll find to be a winner - and, of course, another hour of the finest blues you’ve never heard.
