Selwyn Birchwood - Don't Call No Ambulance (2014/FLAC)

 Picture this—It’s the early 2000’s, and kids fill the parking lot of a Florida high school. Their car radios blast whatever is new and popular from sugary pop to hip-hop. Then a teenage Selwyn Birchwood pulls up, windows down, and Muddy Waters spills out. His friends make faces and ask him, bewildered, “What is that?” Even then, Selwyn wasn’t afraid to be different. But he’s always done things a little differently from everyone else. At 29 years old and based in Tampa, he doesn’t fit the stereotype of a typical bluesman. He may be young, but he’s got experience, grit, and authenticity. He’s brimming with youthful energy and enthusiasm, but he’s also serious about his craft, wise beyond his years, and already has a decade tearing up stages under his belt.

Pick Your Poison is the sophomore album from contemporary blues guitarist, vocalist and songwriter, Selwyn Birchwood. The record seamlessly continues the momentum generated by Birchwood’s impressive 2014 debut, Don’t Call No Ambulance. So much so that if party blues isn’t already a genre, then Selwyn Birchwood just invented it – right from playful jazz-flute-led stomper, “Trial By Fire,” declaring the festivities via drummer Courtney “Big Love” Girlie’s militaristic drum rolls.
