“Each of these special guests brings something unique to the album, and our team works so well together. I think you can hear that chemistry in the music.” – John Mayall
In 2018, legendary musician and bandleader John Mayall chose Wonderland to be lead guitarist in his band, The Blues Breakers. She became the first woman to ever hold that position (The all-star list of Mayall’s legendary guitarists includes Eric Clapton, Mick Taylor, Peter Green, Coco Montoya and Walter Trout).
John’s latest studio album is set for a late spring/early summer release
John Mayall – ‘The First Generation’ limited edition 35-CD box set drops on 29 January, 2021 via the Madfish label through Snapper Music.
“Here’s a song I wrote about all the troubles going on in the world right now,” Mayall told us. “I think Steven Van Zandt did a powerful job capturing the mood of the song with his dynamic guest guitar contribution.”
On February 22nd, Forty Below Records will release ‘Nobody Told Me’, the new studio album from The Godfather of British Blues, John Mayall.
“John loves his fans and is sorry to disappoint you, but is looking forward to seeing you soon at a venue near you. In the meantime, your prayers and good vibes are much appreciated!”
“And that’s the nice thing about the blues is you can tell your stories through words and music.”
Aside from the new trio format and the live presentation, what adds exponentially to this experience is the mix. It’s ambient, raw, sparse, and immediate.
