Put A Sock In It

In primo piano

“Andy Aledort has been my favorite new guitar player for a long time now.”—Joe Satriani

“Taste, tone, chops—Andy’s got it all!”—Warren Haynes

“I’m always trying to find the best guitar player I can, and Andy’s playing is really great. He’s a true player!”—Dickey Betts

“What a soulful player. Andy knows music inside and out.”—John Scofield

“The blues is a multi dimensional world of tone, color and emotion. When we play the blues effectively we speak from our core. When Andy plays, his love and sincerity for the blues is moving. The amazing tone in his fingers offers an authentic and classic blues rock experience.
He is independent, focused and committed to his love for his craft.”-Steve Vai

We are very excited to announce the re-release of Andy Aledort and the Groove Kings’ brilliant 1999 album Put A Sock In It.

It sounds as fresh and exciting now as it did 20 years ago. That’s an impressive feat, but it won’t be a surprise to anyone familiar with Aledort, a musician’s musician and guitarist extraordinaire, who has taught millions to play with his instructional writing  more

SLED

Stunning audiences of the Southern Jam scene with his blistering guitar work and prolific songwriting for the past twenty years, Bobby Lee Rodgers has honed his craft to its finest edge yet in his fun, funky, quirky new release, SLED.

released April 23, 2019

Bobby Lee Rodgers is routinely referred to not only as one of the most brilliant, criminally underrated guitar players of our day, but a gifted songwriter as well. A career that started with playing with jazz greats while still in high school, Bobby’s styles and influences run across a broad musical spectrum. The skilled and sly musical chameleon that he is, Rodgers can be laid back and southern one minute and slide seamlessly into jazz standards or a powerful funk groove the next. With over ten studio albums to his credit and more than 200 original compositions recorded, one thing you can expect from Rodgers is never to expect the same thing twice.

With its thick grooves, rich textures and unique vocal styling, Bobby’s latest creation, SLED, lives up to his ability to surprise, delight and suck you into his quirky brand of Augusta Georgia inspired funk. Bobby’s hallmark, brilliant guitar work and a solid back beat combine with his quirky titles and lyrical storytelling to make SLED his most unique stylistic reinvention in years.
