Karl Blau - Introducing Karl Blau (2016)

An eclectic artist who’s played upwards of 1000 live shows and released countless albums over the last two decades (many on K and K affiliates), Blau’s latest project marks a clean break for him. Called ‘Introducing Karl Blau’, it’s a rich and beautifully crafted collection of country-soul style covers - his first foray into the genre. It’s hard to find a more eclectic musician than Anacortes indie stalwart Karl Blau. The man’s put out over 40 albums in the past 20 years and never stays tethered to one genre for long. On his new album Introducing Karl Blau, he offers up his interpretation on country music by covering Nashville country hits from the 1960s and ’70s.
