Absolutely. Legendary.
As Bonnie Raitt put it, âMike Finnigan was a musical genius and one of the most powerful, virtuosic soul/gospel/blues singers and Hammond B3 players youâll ever be blessed to hear. There was no one like him.â
âMike Finnigan was a leading Hammond B3 performer who recorded with many of the top performers in pop, rock, and jazz for nearly 60 years, although his soul had always been rooted in rhythm and blues. In the late 60s, he recorded with Jimi Hendrix and Joe Cocker. Up until the 2020s he toured and recorded with Bonnie Raitt, Taj Mahal and Tower of Power.â - NAMM
That list of accolades goes on. And on. And on. Joe Cocker, Etta James, Sam Moore, Crosby Stills and Nash, Dave Mason, Buddy Guy, The Manhattan Transfer, Michael McDonald, Maria Muldaur, Peter Frampton, Cher, Ringo Starr, Leonard Cohen, Rod Stewart, David Coverdale, Tracy Chapman, Los Lonely Boys, and more.
ICYMI: Forty Below Records released a posthumous self-titled album by Finnigan, produced by J.J. Blair featuring 11 tracks and special guests Stephen Stills, Smokey Robinson, Kelly Finnigan, Joe Bonamassa and more.

California dreaminâ??
Alex Amenâs âCalifornia Bluesâ is âa homesick travelerâs song illuminating the uneasy contrast between the quintessential California dream and its lived reality.â

Talk about kickinâ things off on a high note!!
Brother Wallace presents to you âElectric Loveâ, his debut album!
As per GLIDE: âThere is a raw aufenticity to these 13 songs that allows this tracklist to play like something that has existed long before Wallace's peers even heard a note of soul music, an intrinsic energy that cracks open tropes, allowing the bright light of Wallace's individuality to shine throughout Electric Love. Every moment of Wallaceâs debut is personal, heartfelt, and carefully curated.â

âIsnât it iconic? Donât you think?â
âA little too iconic. Ya, we really do think.â
If you felt a touch sentimental watching Felix Cartalâs đź for the âThe Wayâ ft. FIONN, it was for good reason. Pair this with it already being an absolute classic from Fastball, and youâve got yourself a recipe for nostalgia.
âWe invite you to enter the minds and creative inclinations of Deer Tick, their friends and families and biggest fans. Please enjoy!
Huge thank you to everyone who contributed your time and incredible art to this video!â - DT
