Livestream: Selwyn Birchwood With Katie Henry at Sellersville Theater 1894

Although award-winning Florida musician Selwyn Birchwood is firmly rooted in the tradition, the young guitarist, lap steel player, songwriter and vocalist sets a course for the future of the blues with his visionary, original music. Birchwood deploys a singular sound and style all his own. He calls it “Electric Swamp Funkin’ Blues,” an intoxicating mix of deep blues, blistering, psychedelic-tinged rock, booty-shaking funk and sweet Southern soul, played and sung with the fire-and-brimstone fervor of a revival tent preacher with a hellhound on his trail.On his new release, Exorcist, Birchwood delivers the most far-reaching, musically adventurous album of his career. According to Blues Music Magazine, “Selwyn Birchwood heralds a fresh, exciting new direction in the blues. Toe-tapping, hip-shaking, joyful and inviting…expansive and focused, exploratory and time-honored, but always original.” One listen to Exorcist will no doubt convert many new true believers: this is visionary contemporary blues written and performed by an endlessly creative, modern-day blues master.Artist WebsiteNew Jersey songwriter Katie Henry started out honing her craft by playing in blues clubs in and around NYC. With fiery guitar chops and natural charisma, she was soon a New York City jam scene favorite. Lately, the multi-instrumentalist is racing through career milestones at a rocket pace. Her debut album, High Road, received nominations by the IBMA and Blues Blast. On her second album, On My Way, Katie has found another gear. Whether slinging her trusty Gibson SG, hammering the keys, or hollering up a storm, these ten original songs, co-written with bassist and slide-guitar maestro Antar Goodwin, announced her as an alchemist who creates gemstones from the base metals of American roots.Artist Website...
