The other release comes from regular Belfast visitors and one of Kentucky’s best exports – Black Stone Cherry.

_{This week has seen press releases from two of our favourite bands announcing the release of records featuring covers of some Blues classics. The second announcement came from Blackstone Cherry and is featured on a separate article. The first announcement came from the Quireboys; who revealed the release of the 3-track EP “Leaving Trunk” on 1st August, followed by the album “White Trash Blues” on 5th September.}

_{I recently posted an album recommendation for “Horizon”, the debut release from Brazilian band Owl Company. The album was released on 14th July via One RPM. As I didn’t know much about the band I arranged to do an interview by e-mail with lead singer Enrico Minelli.  The other members of the band are Felipe Ruiz on guitars, Fabio Yamamoto on bass and Thiago Biasoli on drums.}
