Erin Harpe Country Blues Duo (or “CBD) comes to Bubala's in PTown! Join us for a fabulous evening of acoustic roots and blues.Recently named New England’s “Blues Artist of the Year,” Erin gets back to her roots in the acoustic blues for her new Country Blues Duo (a.k.a. “CBD”) with longtime partner/bassist Jim Countryman. Appropriately nicknamed “shit-kicking blues” on a recent UK tour, they create a very full, danceable and engaging sound with their down-home duo, which features Erin on acoustic guitar, vocals, kazoo & foot percussion, and Jim on ukulele bass and backing vocals.
“she can sing the tattoos right off your arm,” proclaims Living Blues Magazine!
Erin Harpe Country Blues Duo (or “CBD”) has been called “today’s country blues at its very best” by Living Blues Magazine, who crowned Erin “one of the finest fingerpicking acoustic blues singers in the land”! Quickly becoming considered one of the premier fingerstyle blues players today, the award-winning guitarist has earned a reputation as a captivating performer and passionate purveyor of the vintage country blues and roots music she was brought up on. Together with her husband/longtime musical partner, bassist Jim Countryman, the two put out a formidable sound that gets you moving (both doing double duty – Erin on vocals, acoustic guitars, foot percussion & kazoo, complimented by Jim’s ukelele bass & vocals). Their latest album, MEET ME IN THE MIDDLE (which was recorded in the couple’s home studio in Boston during the Covid-19 lockdown) was named “Album of the Year” by the New England Music Awards!
“Erin Harpe has a timeless quality about her. Maybe it is her signature look with a flower in her hair and the fishnet stockings, a look that would have worked in any decade over the past century. Or maybe it is her virtuoso finger picking guitar style or the way she can play the slide guitar like some of the recent greats such as Bonnie Raitt or Rory Block. Or maybe it is her beautiful singing voice, especially when she is covering the old-time blues music of Memphis Minnie or Sippie Wallace with a confidence and sass that might remind you of Maria Muldaur. Her style is both endearing and enduring.” –Sound Waves Magazine
