LUCKY PETERSON (USA)

Lucky Peterson (vocals, guitar, organ), Fred Bintner (drums), Gino Chantoiseau (bass guitar)

Lucky Peterson was discovered by blues legend Willie Dixon when he was three years old and released his first record at five. Trained by keyboardists Bill Doggett and Jimmy Smith, Peterson went on to play behind Little Milton, Bobby "Blue" Bland and Kenny Neal. In 2003, he recorded ‘Black Midnight Sun’. The New Yorker called him "a master of the guitar, organ and microphone”.

His journey was not a smooth one, and Peterson spent the next few years in transition, working to free himself of drug troubles that had affected his health, family and professional life. He spent time in treatment, making one-off records for small European labels, but never a proper follow-up to ‘Black Midnight Sun’.

However, he proved you can always turn around, which is why the first album since his rehabilitation is titled You Can Always Turn Around. Released in September 2010 on Dreyfus Records, the album was recorded with master Woodstock musicians: Larry Campbell, guitar (Bob Dylan, Levon Helm); Scott Petito, bass (The Fugs, Mercury Rev, Rick Danko Band); and Gary Burke, drums (Joe Jackson, Shania Twain). His songs are uplifting and speak of struggles and salvation, using the gritty clarity of acoustic roots-blues (with modern touches).
