David Gogo – Soul Bender<br />
<strong>2011</strong> has already seen David Gogo tour Canada, the US and Europe<br />
relentlessly. In between it all, this hard-travelled, virtuosic bluesman has<br />
produced a sizzling, hard rocking blues album that is filled with heavy<br />
grooves, grit and emotion.<br />
Gogo’s string of accomplishments is impressive; three Juno Nominations,<br />
two-time Maple Blues Guitarist of the Year, WCMA Musician of the Year and<br />
Saturday Night Blues’ Great Canadian Blues Award for a lifetime<br />
contribution to the blues in Canada. Soul Bender is a good bet to add even<br />
more kudos to that list.<br />
Opening with Elmore James’ classic blues shuffle ‘Please Find My Baby’ and<br />
closing with Procol Harum’s ‘Whiskey Train’ Soul Bender features five original<br />
songs, and five covers, all benefiting from David’s unique interpretation.<br />
Recorded in his hometown of Nanaimo Soul Bender is another important<br />
chapter in the evolution of a great guitarist.<br />
