#9 ROOTS MUSIC REPORT BLUES AIRPLAY (USA)
Travellin' Blue A modified line-up, a renewed repertoire, written for the 3rd album 'Take The Edge Off', which does even more justice to the previous album title 'Bending the Rules', prompted the band to make this (minor) name change. After 'Come Hell or High Water' and 'Better Left Unsaid', the ballad 'The Closer Is King' is spotlighted as a single. It proves once again that 'Take The Edge Off' is a very diverse album.

The record is on sale since February 21 on CD and blue vinyl (what else?), worldwide available on digital services and is gathering more than considerable attention. The album even made it to #9 in Roots Music Report's Top 50 Blues Album airplay Chart in the United States in March i.e. 'Take The Edge Off' was among the 10 most played blues albums in the States at the time, at least according to Roots Music Report !!!
