South Australian Soul Blues band Lazy Eye are delighted to announce an extensive tour to promote their new album Pocket The Black, which will be released on September 16 through Only Blues Music.
The album has just been awarded the 2016 Blues Album Of The Year by the Adelaide Roots & Blues Association, adding yet another accolade to Lazy Eye’s growing collection, which includes gongs for the 2013 SA Blues & Roots Best Blues Album (Move Me), Best Blues Artist (2014 South Australian Music Awards), alongside nominations for Song Of The Year (Hole In My Pocket) at the 2015 Australian Blues Music Awards, and Most Popular Blues/Roots Artist in the 2016 South Australian Music Awards.
Pocket The Black showcases perfectly Lazy Eye’s winning combination of soulful blues that melds sounds from the Mississippi Delta, Chicago, Latin America and Africa via the Caribbean, all delivered with plenty of style and oodles of panache by the talented trio of Evan Whetter on vocals, organ and harmonica, Erica Graf on guitar and backing vocals and Mario Marino on drums and backing vocals
Presales for “Pocket The Black” are available right here
