Two years after the release of his internationally acclaimed debut album King Hokum, the inimitable CW Stoneking – guitar & tenor banjo player, singer/songwriter and raconteur – returns with a new collection of original tunes, Jungle Blues. Inspired in part by his amazing experiences as a survivor of a shipwreck off Africa’s West Coast in 1998, it draws on the blues of the Southern U.S.A., calypso music of Trinidad, jungle jazz of the 1920s, and hillbilly music of the 1930s for a musical journey into a heart of darkness.
This November CW and his band The Primitive Horn Orchestra will be bringing Jungle Blues to life on stages across the country, taking punters on an aural journey, finding them stranded, deep in the West African jungle. Hair-raising stories that will haunt dreams, voodoo tunes, full-blown jungle epics, desolate guitar and singing-country-blues, calypso-styled, black magic murder ballads, CW Stoneking and his Primitive Horn Orchestra will tell the Jungle Blues story from all side
