This time out, the studio band included such luminaries as bassist George Porter Jr.; pianist Mike Lemmler; drummer Doug Belote; harmonica player Smoky Greenwell and New Orleans Suspects’ saxophonist/session arranger Jeffrey T. Watkins. Yet, with the aforementioned New Orleans icons, don’t think of this as a fantasy baseball camp where Brunt only hobnobs with the stars. As a songwriter, he holds his own, Overall, it feels ore like a mind-bending odyssey, intriguing stuff.

This music demands to be heard. Brunt’s playing reminds us of the great Lonnie Mack; unhurried, at imes playful, but always a thoughtful touch, and well played. Then too, his vocals and story telling are reminiscent of Delbert McClinton.

He is basically an electric blues story teller. He pays homage to classic American blues but his slide technique and use of a wah-wah pedal propel the sound into the present. He may not be flashy but he is a master technician who is able to convey emotion and a personal connection though his music.By David Bowling

his rampaging slide stings, utilizing tried'n'true blues progressions but adding a 2015 sheen to the whole shebang a dynamite new roots-reverent newcomer to the American blues scene.

Now Isaiah is bringing that love up from down under. A fine songwriter and singer, he is a proud practitioner of old school blues, with tasty slide guitar chops to prove it.

Incidentally, all the songs are thoughtful originals - there’s no slinging together of a few common stock verses on this very individual, entertaining and thought-provoking set.

All original tunes, for me it’s Brunt’s guitar playing which takes centre stage. It’s so understated and subtle, and has me wondering why it’s taken him so long to record electric. Good stuff though, one to sit and listen to intently, diggin’ on the heavy, slow groove.
