Left Lane Cruiser (from the album Bayport BBQ Blues

Left Lane Cruiser (from the album Bayport BBQ Blues available on Alive NaturalSound)
Using the album title as a nod of tribute to Chris Johnson, creator of Deep Blues Festival, Indiana Blues-duo Left Lane Cruiser deliver Bayport BBQ Blues. The pair follow wriggling guitar lines into the album, pounding out a “Motown Mash” to begin the song cycle. Salvation marches alongside The Band’s “Ophelia” when Left Lane Cruiser bring the Blues to church as a drum rumble sets the pace for “Man Down the Road” while “Get Down” adds banjo to the guitar/drums make-up of Left Lane Cruiser and a shout out to a lady labelled danger is centered in “Crazy Love”.
The riff heavy stomp through “Black Forest Blues” is balanced by the slow distorted chords framing “The Desert” where Left Lane Cruiser nod to the 90’s Desert Rock scene. The duo wraps each track in a thick blanket of the Blues. Freddy J IV (guitar, vocals) and Brenn ‘Sausage Paw’ Beck (drums, washboard, trash kit) make a mighty stomp and holler. The two-piece slam down any full band competition as Left Lane Cruiser fast-track a Blues wail for “Backyard” as Bayport BBQ Blues makes plans to dance all night with “Big Momma Shake”.
