It has been a great pleasure to discover an Amercian band called Rosedale Junction based in Boston, that recently have released their debut album “Stompin’On The Front Porch”. An album of 13 tracks that takes you on a trip through the various styles of blues such as electric blues, acoustic delta blues, country, bluegrass/western swing, RnB and of course good old rock ‘n’ roll. There is no doubt about it, an album full of variations allowing you to visit with your mind different angles of our beloved blues. I was very shocked and happy to find out that Toby Soriero comes from an italian family originally from Campania and town called Colliano not far from Salerno. It’s great to see that the italian DNA spreads thoughout the world and bringing to life outstanding blues. This is certainly an album to check out and I can only say that if this is the debut album, we can’t wait to see what is next to come.
