(English) At last: Michael Hill’s Blues Mob has been captured live! After four highly acclaimed studio albums of fiery, genre-busting original music and many miles traveled rousing audiences around the globe, the excitement and energy of Michael Hill’s Blues Mob onstage resounds on their Ruf Records debut, “Electric Storyland Live”. Folks have been asking for a live Blues Mob album for a long time, and they won’t be disappointed. The power and dynamics, the deep grooves and eloquent stories, the bold, passionate singing and musicianship and engaging stage presence- it’s all here in spades. When asked why a blues festival, festival Founder and internationally-acclaimed bassist Griot responded, “Rock and jazz and rap festivals are all around us, while the blues genre is an underappreciated, yet seminal, American tradition. I’ve found that people who didn’t even know what the style was will instantly like the blues when they first hear it and recognize that much of their favorite music has its roots in the blues.”
