Kitchener's Sean Pinchin on New Tim Bastmeyer CD


Kitchener's Sean Pinchin plays wonderful slide guitar as part of Tim Bastmeyer's All Star Blues Band on the latest incredible album.  This recording has an amazing, earthy vibe from start to finish.

Tim's enlisted quite an impressive group for this cool recording. Along with Sean, there's Julian Fauth (keys), Paul Reddick (harmonica), James Thomson (bass) and Cam de Laat (drums). 

Together, they've managed to mix in boogie and funk in to their marvelous Country Blues sound. Not surprising, considering the top-notch talent involved.

If you catch any of the groups live shows, be sure to pick up a CD.  You can also download it via iTunes.

                        Steve Strongman and Mark McIntyre on New Sean Pinchin CD: Rustbucket

                        Toronto/Mississauga Bluesman Sean Pinchin's enlisted some amazing local talent to back him up on his current CD, Rust Bucket. The result is a highly entertaining and polished disc.

                        You can hear Sean's awesome slide guitarwork and his marvelous voice everywhere on this collection.  His lyrics are very passionate and personal as well.

                        Area musician Mark McIntyre offers up his substantial bass skills to the album. Also helping with the bottom end is superb drummer Adam Warner.  Toronto singer/songwriter, Emma-Lee handles backing vocals with style.  Juno winner (and Hamilton boy) Steve Strongman joins in the fun by showcasing his extensive guitar and harmonica chops on the track Wanna Stay in Bed.  Producer Rob Szabo (also a Juno Winner) gave everything a live off the floor feel.

                        You can pick up this marvellous CD at Sean's gigs, on the 'Net through his online shop or  cdbaby.  It can also be downloaded through cdbaby and iTunes.
