“Birchwood is one of contemporary blues’ foremost innovators. Funky, Southern-flavored electric blues… infectious rhythms and inventive soloing.” — Blues Music MagazineAward-winning guitarist, lap steel master, vocalist, and songwriter Selwyn Birchwood pushes contemporary blues forward with his self-coined “electric swamp funkin’ blues”—a charged mix of deep blues, psychedelic rock, funk, and Southern soul delivered with raw power and a magnetic stage presence. Gritty vocals ride over fierce guitar and lap steel work, with every song driven by Birchwood’s original writing and a sharp sense of groove. Backed by a band built for momentum, Birchwood’s modern blues hits with bite: sharp riffs, inventive soloing, and rhythms that lock in hard and stay there.
Joe Bonamassa calls him “one of my favorite discoveries. He puts on a great show.”
