Product Details

Selwyn Birchwood was still in his mid-twenties when he cut this debut for Alligator, having already won the International Blues Challenge in 2013, a signal that the Tampa scene had produced something genuinely rare. Where most young blues artists lean on reverence, Birchwood came out swinging with a pen, writing every track himself and staking his claim as a voice, not just a guitar slinger.


Selwyn Birchwood, Florida's rising young blues fireball, is a guitar and lap steel playing bundle of pure energy. He delivers his original songs with a revival tent preacher's fervor and a natural storyteller's charisma made all the more impactful by his raw, unvarnished vocals. Birchwood plays high-octane blues at once deeply rooted, funky and up-to-the-minute with true passion and honest emotion.
