Laurence Jones releases “Bad Luck and the Blues” video
UK based guitarist Laurence Jones has released a music video for “Bad Luck and the Blues.” It’s the title track from Jones’ upcoming album out August 25th on Marshall Records.
“This is an out and out Blues-Rock, Power-trio set up, with a guitar riff that are in your face from the get-go,” said Jones. “Lyrically I’m singing about hurt, feeling down, bad luck & nothing to lose, taking inspiration from the old blues greats. I’ve had my fair share of Bad luck with my health suffering from Crohn’s disease and I’ve also felt the blues. Writing this song relates to anyone with their own struggles in life. The main message of the song is to find courage and hope to be free in a time where you don’t think it’s possible.”
Bad Luck and the Blues was recorded at The Marshall Studio, mixed by Chris Sheldon (Jeff Beck, Foo Fighters, King King) and mastered at Abbey Road Studios by Christian Wright (Jack Bruce, Robin Trower, Ten Years After).
