I started a quest to find terrific blues music and incredible musicianship when I was just a little kid. I also have a tremendous appreciation of fine musical instruments and equipment. One of my greatest joys all of my life was sharing my finds with my friends. I'm now publishing my journey. I hope that you come along!

Chicken in the Watch - Black River Bluesman & Bad Mood Hudson


Black River Bluesman and his Cockroach Combo destroyed the woods and the mountains around their tiny hometown of Mustio Finland by carving their guitars, drums and harmonicas from whole ironwood trees with their bare hands and by using John Henry..s twelve pound hammer (with four foot handle) they beat down those mountains for brass, silver and iron (and coal to fire this thing) to fashion the rest of the parts they needed. When they were finished they stomped their thirst with a bottle of RL Burnside..s Bloody mthrfckr and sat down in the full moon light at that muddy crossroads between Holly Springs Mississippi, Mustio and County Kisko to play Their raw dirty beautiful Blues.................Rick Saunders, Deep Blues (USA), August 2006.

Jukka plays Johnny Lowebow’s genuine handmade custom cigar-box guitars, the most special of which is the doubleneck stereo baritone. Multi-instrumentalist Andy, who joined the band in the days of the Croaking Lizard quartet, functions in this line-up as a drummer-percussionist and a back-up singer. He has spent years singing and playing in and writing for various bands, mostly in the field of heavier rock.

”The flag-bearer of Finnish alt.blues”, Black River Bluesman has always walked his own path, producing his uncompromising and original music with little regard for the mainstream. The line-ups have changed, but the group has now tightened into a working duo, retaining nothing but the most vital elements of their music.

Past gigs include numerous festivals literally around the globe, from Nepal to Italy and Estonia, from Shetland to the USA and Brazil. Airplay, live radio and TV performances, magazine profiles and praise have also cropped up in all corners of the world. Black River Bluesman's 4th full-length album is due before the end of the year.
