   About The Blues Preachers

Listen to some of our original tracks on Triple J Unearthed. logo   I edited my profile with Thomas Myspace Editor V4.4 (www.strikefile.com/myspace)Click here to vote for us!

The Blues Preachers will take you to another place & time, somewhere between 1920 & 1940. Their music paints a landscape of pre war struggle & determination with sounds reminiscent of The Deep South. The Blues Preachers perform Blues, Rags, Gospel & Hillbilly Folk Music. The powerful simplicity of driving finger style guitar, slide guitar & harmonica combined with old school vocal harmonies create a traditional un-tarnished sound that will have you on the edge of your seats. The Blues Preachers will make you dance with their joyful Country and Ragtime Blues and send a shiver up your spine with their atmospheric feels which echo & pay homage to the sacred sounds of early artists such as Blind Willie Johnson.

CDs available from iTunes:

1. Next Stop Beulah Land

2. Dry Long So
