New York City is a big place. A loud place. Some of that noise is music. And some of the music is noise. Sucking it all in and turning it loose with prejudice, The John Spencer Blues Explosion takes a ferocious bite out of the Big Apple with their new long-player, Freedom Tower, the first record of the new era that demands to be stopped and frisked! Rehearsed and polished in a string of secret gigs and unannounced opening slots in theaters, hotel bars, and dives (often under assumed names), and then recorded at the legendary Daptone House of Soul in Bushwick and mixed with hip-hop cult legend Alap Momin at the cutting edge of Harlem, Blues Explosion stomp on the faux underground oasis paddled by bourgeois hipsters and marketing jocks to deliver the real deal - rock'n'roll that is unapologetically nasty and strong.
