The Bright Side Of Larry 25/5/25

Originally penned for the late, great Bobby “Blue” Bland, but sat unreleased for decades until producer Josh Smith brought it to this celebrated Blues singer and guitarist, knowing he was the one to bring it to life, Larry McCray recently released 'Bright Side', the second single from his upcoming ten-track album 'Heartbreak City', due out on Friday 13th June via Joe Bonamassa's KTBA Records, of which this mid-tempo burner is also today's Video Of The Day. Produced by Grammy-nominated duo Bonamassa and Smith, 'Heartbreak City' is a bold, unfiltered collection that finds McCray at the height of his powers, fusing raw Blues with vintage Soul, Southern grit, and a hard-won sense of joy, featuring standout contributions from Reese Wynans, Kirk Fletcher, and background vocalists Jade Macrae and Dannielle De Andrea, as well as guest guitar work from Bonamassa himself.
