With imaginative compositions and an eye for eclectic experimentation, guitarist and vocalist Corey Harris has his own vision of the blues. Drawing on his origins as a New Orleans street singer and his travels through the South and Cameroon, Harris takes the traditional blues formula to the next level with influences from reggae, soul, rock, and West African music. Insurrection Blues, his 20th album, sees Harris return to a solo acoustic format. With Jamie Dyer and David French.
