The blues highlight Mark Otis Selby - A gifted musician and songwriter. For his work as a songwriter, he won e.g. a Grammy Award (as an author for the Dixie Chicks). 4 of his songs made it to the top of the US Billboard charts, and countless others reached the top 40. Mark Selby is the ultimate synonym for down-to-earth blues-rock as well as for creative songwriting. Tragically, he died of cancer on September 18, 2017. But his music lives on! Shortly before his death he recorded the „Naked Sessions“. Raw, live, honest and unfiltered! Only Mark Selby and his guitar! „As a singer / songwriter, Mark Selby‘s in the same league as Bruce Springsteen, with meaty words, a compelling voice, and tracks that have more groove than a vintage vinyl record.“ American songwriter „An electrifying performer.“ Blues Revue His sophomore cd, Dirt, indicates that album was no fluke. No need for bells and whistles here-the music does the talking. „Rolling Stone „Simply put, 11 tracks of the best rock and roll we‘ll hear this year.“ Vintage Guitar
