Artist History
Receive e-mail alerts from the Bliss'n'Blue Fan Club - powered by Botablog Coming together as a duo after decades of playing in bands, Bliss 'n' Blue preserve a band's instinct to drive a room and rock the house. Using traditional instruments, (resonator guitars and basses, ukulele, mandolin, harp, and stompbox), provides a texture that supports profound lyrics, original and emotionally dead on. The songs tell of the complex feelings that come up in relationships, the crosscut saw that makes life and love such an enjoyable pain in the ass! The phrase Bliss'n‘Blue says it all. These guys have been around the block musically and emotionally. There are echoes of many different country's roots musical traditions in their music.‘ - Curtis Blues, USA

"Keep on Walking" review by RadioIndy
| POSTED BY: xavierpersad | POSTED ON: 28 Jan 2007 10:23 AM | ||
 "Keep on Walking" is an excellent modern folk CD. When you listen to this CD you will feel like you are in a pub listening to an extremely talented group of musicians having fun entertaining you. This reflects on the excellent production that allows the details of the instrumentation, songwriting, and vocals as well as the personality of the band to shine through. The band is very tight and musically impressive, creating a very pleasing sound mix of acoustic instruments. The songs are catchy and melodic yet unpredictably interesting. We love the guitar licks, melodic chorus, and overall toe-tapping groove of the title track and "The Beggar," two of our favorite tracks. The vocals on this CD have excellent pitch and a swagger, harmony, and raspiness that gives the "Saturday night at the pub" feel to the music. If you enjoy modern folk and/or spending a Saturday night at the pub having a good time listening to a talented band play acoustic instruments, you'll enjoy this CD.

To often the wrong statement is made that there are no unique music bands any more, esp. bands that are great in bringing a mix of blues, country, stomp beat boogie, rock and some country blues influenced songs. Ralph Skuban ( vocals, guitar, ukulele, stomp) & Walter Zaeh (vocals, bass, harmonica, stomp) alias Bliss'n'Blue align completely to my expectations: a unique mix of above mentioned music styles, this with their own touch added to it. A duo that understands the art of transmitting solid songs in a pleasant way. This is demonstrated in their debut album 'Keep On Walking' ... Skuban and Zaeh proof here to be great songwriters ... Both have been around in the world of music for quite a bit to come across each other after 20 years and to start with this new project. The songs are not offered in the common traditional blues manner although their instruments would be ideal for this. Let us simply keep it on country blues where this duo was able to add their own sound to, and in my opinion they succeeded in this in a outstanding manner. This album 'Keep On Walking' is not for those wild moments but a beautiful 'Let'sDwell In The Past', 'Blue Woman'‚ and 'Goodbye Anna'‚ are more an enjoyment for the ear. Ralph Skuban and Walter Zaeh demonstrated to be very skilled in their tasks ... For those who enjoy a quiet, serene music atmosphere in a sublime mix of blues, country and singer/songwriter are with this duo at the right address. |
