Fresh from a summer tour of Europe, Acoustic Routes presents Bloodshot Records recording artist Luke Winslow-King of New Orleans.

Luke is a singer, composer and lyricist known for his slide guitar work, and the New York Times describes his music as, “A boiled-down live, almost improvised sound that seamlessly melds Delta blues, gospel and jazz themes with personal, simplified lyrics that speak to his personal and artistic evolution.” Offbeat Magazine said, “Like all good troubadours, Winslow-King balances that blatant power with the sexy, sweet come-on lilt.” 

Here are just a few examples:
