{"product_id":"cedric-burnside_benton-county-relic-vinyle-marron_2026_mdl","title":"Benton County Relic - Vinyle Marron","description":"Singer, songwriter, guitarist, and drummer Cedric Burnside, son of drummer Calvin Johnson, was raised by his grandfather, blues legend R.L. Burnside, in Mississippi. Born into the blues, or more precisely into the hill country blues, a rhythmically unorthodox variation of Mississippi blues, Cedric toured with his grandfather as a drummer from the age of 13, while his father moved to the Netherlands to pursue his career. He has played with the North Mississippi Allstars, Jimmy Buffett, Hubert Sumlin (Howlin' Wolf), Black Joe Lewis, and Jon Spencer Blues Explosion. He was nominated for a Grammy in 2015 and received the Best Drummer of the Year award four times in a row at the Blues Music Awards. Benton County Relic, released in 2018, is his first album for Single Lock Records. It forcefully drags the rich tradition of hill country blues into the contemporary sound of electrified, crackling blues. If blues is music for overcoming hard times, Cedric's music aims to overcome modern oppression and today's difficulties. The twelve tracks were partly written in pain, from a childhood in poverty with \"We Made It,\" to unrequited love with \"There is so Much,\" to the loss of a loved one with \"Hard to Stay Cool.\" However, his blues covers a wider range of emotions; we also find \"Call on Me,\" intended for his three daughters, for whom he wants to be there emotionally if not always physically, \"Death Bell Blues,\" which is a tribute to his grandfather who already played this song, or \"Ain't Gonna Take No Mess,\" which clarifies that Cedric plays music the way he wants without caring about others' opinions. Rightly so, as he helps keep the blues alive for a new generation nurtured by the White Stripes and the Black Keys.","brand":"Cedric Burnside","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56621567803736,"sku":null,"price":20260306.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0898\/4943\/0360\/files\/0701822967082.jpg?v=1769711825","url":"https:\/\/vinyles.com\/en\/products\/cedric-burnside_benton-county-relic-vinyle-marron_2026_mdl","provider":"Vinyles.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
