Vancouver guitarist and keyboards player BJ Block is into instrumental mid-tempo songs augmented with a bit of electronics. His full length Glitterball comes in handy to chill after attending high energy live concert or to start the day in a very relaxed way indeed.
His jazzy Seventies inspired compositions won't win awards for breaking new ground, but his chops and tone make him stand out amongst the hopefull that are looking for a place on the shelf where you keep your Sunday morning record collection. It's smooth, but when he decides to build upon it on stage with his adequate rhythm section something more memorable is likely to happen. The disco send-up Mersey Beat might evolve into a smiling mosh pit.
BJ Block: guitars, keyboards, drum progamming
Brian Mclaughlin: drum progamming, percussion
Lenny Fatigati: bass
Glitterball is a self-released album. Buy it from CD Baby.
