EJ Mathews – King of the BarnYard

Comin’ in hot in 2017, straight from the backwoods of East Texas with EJ Mathews – King of the Barnyard. This release finds EJ spreading his wings with a gang of great musicians including the great Chuck “Popcorn” Louden on drums. This release also backs up nicely to EJ’s award of Breakout Artist of 2017 in Living Blues Magazine. It’s dirty and sometimes soft but always straight from the soul of this great songwriter.

Ej and Janky became friends and often play shows together.

The artwork was commissioned by extremely prolific, Dallas artist Clay Stinnett. This CD was produced by EJ Mathews and Janky and is on the ReverbUnit Record Label.

Junior Kimbrough’s Juke Joint on Google Earth

Few people know that you can scrub back in time on Google Earth revealing all kinds of fun historical stuff. I even found Hitler's lair before we bombed it into oblivion (mess with the US and Allies and find out). I went through the years and found Junior's Juke Joint outside of Holly Springs, Mississippi. Here is a Google Earth breakdown. Enjoy.
