Bushmaster - Drowning On Dry Land / Live & Blue (2006/2008)

Gary Brown (Guitar/Vocals) is a DC area native (Palmer Park) with 30+ years playing experience. After picking up his first guitar (an old Guild acoustic) at age 14, the 45 year old Brown quickly progressed to electric and after stints with various local bands, most notably The Spoilers, and sitting in around DC area clubs he decided to take the plunge and form his own group in 1992.

Released on August 25, 2006, Bushmaster's second CD is an inspiring collection of original tunes varying from Blues, Rock, Funk, and Rap. Gary's blazing guitar style is even more riveting (if that's possible) than his captivating live performances, you will be glued to your stereo all the way through the album. Influenced by Jimi Hendrix, Robin Trower, Frank Marino, Freddy King, and Funkadelic alike, the music on this CD is sure to please a wide spectrum of music lovers.

Released in the Spring of 2008, Bushmaster's third CD is an inspiring collection of original tunes and re-energized blues classics. Recorded live in Carlisle, PA, at two gigs, this album captures the energy and "musical conversations" that occur when Gary and Jay take the stage together. Influenced by a host of blues greats, including Alec Rice "Sonny Boy Williams II" Miller, McKinley "Muddy Waters" Morganfield, Eddie Boyd, George "Buddy" Guy, Albert Collins, Roy Alfred, Ray Charles, Elmore James, and many others, the music on this CD is sure to please a wide spectrum of blues music lovers.
