Sweetpea Atkinson to Release Solo Album in March 2015 - February 23rd, 2015

Looks like we have something to look forward to next month!

It seems that The Boneshakers, with Randy Jacobs and Sweetpea Atkinson are teaming up for a mini tour with Powerhouse saxophonist Mindi Abair in the coming months.  Check Randy’s site for tour dates here: http://www.randyjacobs.com/boneshakers/

As great as that is, the more exciting bit is in the press releases for the events which indicate Sweetpea will have a new solo album out in March.  Here’s a typical release, and one I hope to be able to go to in April:

Other’s have indicated that the album will be release on Blue Note Records which makes a lot of sense 🙂  So far nothing more official on that.
