Reverend Freakchild - The Bodhisattva Blues (2020)

On his 12th album, “The Bodhisattva Blues,” the Reverend resurrects classic blues and rock tunes from Muddy Waters, Jimmy Reed, and the Beatles, along with Grateful Dead favorites. Primarily a solo performer, the Reverend invited musicians from the extended Grateful Dead musical family to form his backing band – keyboardist Melvin Seals (Jerry Garcia band), guitarist Marc Karan (Bob Weir, RatDog, Live Dead), drummer Chris Parker (Bob Dylan, John Hammond Jr.) and Robin Sylvester (RatDog) on bass, with percussionist Jason Hann (String Cheese Incident) as well as special guests, harmonica master Hugh Pool (New York Blues Hall of Fame ~ Master Artist) and young blues guitarist A.J. Fullerton.
