You’ve mentioned Stevie Ray Vaughn and Albert Collins as early influences. It’s interesting that your primary influences are American when your home country boasts blues legends such as Eric Clapton and Peter Green. Would you consider yourself more an American-style player?
I really wish you hadn’t said expert. For me, I’ve felt a bit more risk in Americans’ playing. The Brits are a bit more polished. Certainly Clapton, Jeff Beck. That’s not to say that’s better. There’s a bit more tenacity — dirt maybe — in Americans’ playing. I like the aggressiveness of Stevie and Albert Collins. That’s the biggest difference for me.
You pull other styles into your music, but the blues serves as the connective tissue. How do you honor that tradition but also have something new to say? It’s always helpful to have a new album out, because then you know you have to play X-amount of songs from it. I kind of do that, then I kind of blend it in with — you said something earlier about, “I’m not really a blues artist but everything I do is blues.” I think I approach it as a blues guitarist. I may not be singing a blues song, but it has a blues feel. I try to balance it with those big guitar solos and songs, then the lighter, sort of poppier stuff.
