The Pocket Players - Throw Your Dog A Bone (2016)

"Throw Your Dog A Bone" is the latest release from Danish blues band The Pocket Players, who by now has 4 years in the business. Their music is described as "classical blues without rules, but with fabulous musicians and heaps of energy". The album consists of self-composed songs about love, jealousy, alcohol, sex and lust for life. The album also contains sharp comments to Denmark and the state of the Western World in the year 2016.

The Pocket Players' sound is raw and unpolished. The band follows a proud old blues tradition of stealing with arms and legs and stir it all together in a gumbo. The result is blues with a dash of acid rock. A quite unique and different expression than the blues derived from the Mississippi Delta, Muddy Waters' Chicago or Stevie Ray Vaughan's Texas.
