A.k.a. Archie Lee Hooker & The Coast to Coast Blues Band
Nephew of John Lee Hooker, Archie was born in 1949 on the road of blues in Mississippi. He sings gospel, attends juke-joints, settles in Memphis before joining in 1989 his uncle and mentor John in California. For twenty years, Archie Lee Hooker rolls his hump across Europe. It will take all this time to finally release this first album where he tells his life of slave descendant. Surrounded by Franco-Brazile-Luxembourg musicians, the almost septuagenarian explores the blues in all its dimensions. The voice is hot, the case is solid and the cocktail is juicy.
