Here's something unique-a trio of french bluesmen playing guitar and washtub/one-man-band drums/Harmonica ala Hooker, T-Model or R.L. Burnside. This is not 'cutting edge' blues, but gutbucket played with a lot of feeling and energy.
Stinky Lou & The Goon Mat are Mathias Dalle (the goon, on guitar and vocals) and his best friend Laurent Goossens (the stinky ! on the washtub)... No need to say that the duet works on strong basis ! Duet, not exactly, cause it's a trio now !!! Lord Benardo, the Harmonica player joined the band !
A repertoire of compositions of their own in the same vein than J.L.Hooker, T Model Ford, R.L.Burnside, a root-mannered guitar playing, inspired by the Delta blues, and unusual rythmics (a washtub and one man band drums !), all set immediately recalls the Juke Joints atmosphere at the heroic age. All this played with a lot of energy!!
Would you be convinced, you'd just have to listen to their brand new CD 'Fat sausage for dinner (produced by Marc T/naked productions), especially the track Tell Me. That composition of their own, worthy to the greatest songwriters, has true blues lyrics: three or four simple sentences that will move you, emphasized by a voice and a guitar-sounding that spread a wide range of emotions...
Stinky Lou & The Goon Mat have not only taken the spirit of blues in : they also master the writing of it
