2007 - Los Angeles, California
Magnolia Gold Records - A New Kind Of Blues
Legendary songwriter, singer, DELANEY BRAMLETT has released to the world his brand new album called "A NEW KIND OF BLUES", and that is just what it is! The timing is perfect to be introducing "A NEW KIND OF BLUES" to a musical audience that is seeking something much deeper and meaningful than "American Idol" pop or the repetitive "no music" boring, downbeat of today's "hip-hop".

The gritty soul of this album and musical genius of DELANEY BRAMLETT should exist to inspire any young or old musician alike who knows and feels the BLUES. Perhaps it's time for the BLUES to re-immerge as a viable form of musical expression for today's young people who need a vehicle to vent their own ups and downs, which Delaney surely shows how to do with "A NEW KIND OF BLUES". This new album is hip, wild, and personal...so personal that it gives the audience a vivid picture of the details of the artist's own life.

Delaney has shared the stage with “Friends” that included Eric Clapton, Leon Russell, George Harrison, Duane Allman, Dave Mason, Gram Parsons,
Jim Hendrix, John Lennon…to name just a few. A complete list of collaborations both in songwriting & performance reads like a history of Rock & Roll.

DELANEY BRAMLETT expresses himself like no other musician today, not only through his unpredictable writing,, but also through his unequaled, soulful vocals that will make you want to listen to this album for many years to come. Stan Ruffo contributes harmonica to several tracks! Find out more or order yous at www.delaneybramlett.com, or cdbaby.com.
