A packed edition of the British Blues Awards 2013 nominated Digital Blues on Gateway 97.8 this Wednesday with all the variety you have come to expect!

There are tracks from Blues Music Award winners the late Michael Burks, Tab Benoit, the late Magic Slim & the Teardrops, the Tedeschi Trucks Band, the Mannish Boys, Rick Estrin & the Nightcats, Janiva Magness, Ruthie Foster, Eric Bibb, Curtis Salgado, Irma Thomas and Victor Wainwright. Plus there is a track from Blues Hall of Fame inductee, Joe Louis Walker.

There is another track from this month’s IBBA Album of the Month, ‘Highwire’ by the Daniel Smith Blues Band and more new releases from Angel Forrest, Dave Arcari & the Helsinki Hellraisers, Hans Theessink, Big Daddy Wilson and Ron Dzubla.

In the gig guide there are tracks from Mick Pini and the SPIKEdrivers plus slices of birthday cake for Roscoe Levee and Micke Bjorkof & BlueStrip. By popular request there is a track from Zoe Schwarz Blue Commotion

That will do very nicely I think!
