"A great artist...impassioned vocals and pure inventiveness in his stellar guitar solos...He makes
playing rough feel easy." -Blues Music Magazine
"With a sterling reputation, guitarist and vocalist Tommy Castro is one of the foremost practitioners of electric blues. Searing delivery... rousing and teeming
with emotion. [He is] a sheer, soaring tour-de-force."
-Living Blues "Castro plays gritty, string-bending blues like a runaway train....a glorious blend that rocks the
soul and lifts the spirits." -No Depression

"Soaring vocals and swirling leads...showcasing Castro's testifying, confessional vocals [and]
resonant emotional power as a singer." -AllMusic
Multiple award-winning, California-based blues and rock sensation Tommy Castro is the guitar slinging, soul-singing leader of the telepathically tight and wildly raucous Tommy Castro & The Painkillers. He's released 17 previous albums over the course of his four-decade career. Each release features its own individual sound and style, ranging from horn-fueled R&B to piping hot blues and soul to fiery, stripped-down rock 'n' roll. With his new album, Closer To The Bone, Castro has returned to his roots, delivering what he calls "a real blues record, the way they would have made them back in the day." Closer To The Bone is the most unvarnished, straight- ahead blues release of Castro's career, one that bristles
with every ounce of his dynamic energy and raw emotion.
