Top Dutch blues band Fat Harry & the Fuzzy Licks has released its second album "Zero Ten Alley" (010 is popular code for their hometown Rotterdam). The album is filled with catchy songs that blend soul, funk, R&B into a style that does not shy away from showing respect to the band’s heroes of Afro-American music. All presented in a sound that is very much adding present influences to the classic blues template.
On stage, this highly respected blues unit, always makes sure that their music skills never get in the way of passion and energy. Their musical versatility has lead to a list of international artists that have been happy to work with Fat Harry & the Fuzzy Licks as their European touring band. The band has played with the likes of Preston Shannon, Kat Riggins, John Primer, Curtis Salgado, Giles Robson and Lurrie Bell to name a few.
The band has always had a strong bond especially with Joe Louis Walker. He has been an early inspiration, but in return the Fuzzy Licks have backed him regularly on European stages and Joe Louis actually even recorded a song penned by Harry for his album "Between A Rock And The Blues". One of (if not THE) last recordings Joe Louis Walker did before his passing was a haunting guitar solo on I’m Gonna Leave You for "Zero Ten Alley" - which now sounds like a sinister prophecy.
Other prominent contributions on "Zero Ten Alley" come from soulful blues songstress Robbin Kapsalis and the band’s own saxophone player Jan de Ligt, who sadly passed away shortly after the recordings of this new album. Which, despite these life challenges the band went through, is another highlight in the band’s career reminding us that the blues is still alive. /Bluestown Music
