VETERAN CHICAGO BLUES HARPIST FRANK RAVEN RELEASES NEW SOLO ALBUM, LUCKY CAT, ON HIS OWN RAVEN LABEL
With the release of his new CD Lucky Cat on his own Raven imprint, Frank Raven is staking a claim to his rightful place among Chicago’s veteran blues harmonica elite. Recorded with his longtime musical cohorts Jay O’Rourke (who tripled as producer and engineer) and Lee D’Budda manning the blistering guitars, the album is deeply rooted in traditional blues yet reverberates with a high-energy, slashing edge that’s sure to entrance the blues-rock crowd.
