Synopsis

Product Description
In 2006, The Joey Gilmore Band was proclaimed the Best Blues Band in the World , taking 1st Place honors in this most highly coveted award in the world of Blues,

The International Blues Challenge (IBC). The IBC is the world s largest gathering of Blues acts representing an international search by The Blues Foundation and its affiliated organizations to find the Blues Band and Solo or Duo act ready to take the international stage.

Not only was Joey Gilmore ready, the public s awareness of this major Blues talent was long overdue. Joey Gilmore s career has spanned almost 50 years, with performances throughout the United States and Europe. Joey is a true Blues and R&B master who incorporates new and varied styles in his music, performing original compositions mixed with traditional standards in his high energy live show.

His tenor/baritone vocals belt out tunes reminiscent of the great Blues legends of the 40 s and 50 s.
Joey is undoubtedly the definitive Bluesman .

When you look up the word Bluesman in a dictionary,
you would expect to see a picture of Joey Gilmore!

That s why Joey s latest CD is simply called Joey Gilmore: BLUESMAN

CD Reviews

A Real Bluesman!
Mojo | SoFla | 06/11/2008
(5 out of 5 stars)

"This is Joey's best album to date. With one of the best voices in all of blues, "Bit Off More Than I Could Chew" is an electrifying track and probably my favorite--love the horns on this one. "White Shoes" has got some serious NOLA funk and "Wishing Well" will get your hips grinding with the beat. With a couple of nods to B.B. King thrown in, I can't find a bad track on this disc! Joey can holler with the best of 'em and has guitar chops to boot. With a solid band and a track list that flows from beginning to end, you can't miss with this record. Joey shines like a blues beacon!!"
