Cheese Finger Brown – Low Down People (Humu Records)

| Cheese Finger Brown - Low Down People |
Release Date: Out Now
Right, first things first, Cheese
Finger Brown sounds awful as a name. It sounds like the kind of nickname they would
give a kid from high school who gets caught sticking cheese up his ass in the
toilets. Anyway, Cheese Finger Brown is Dutch so maybe there’s a different meaning
over there and at least he’s not called Meatloaf. So, this new single, ‘Low
Down People’, is a gloriously and appropriately low down bluesy ramble with
every string vibration and intake of breath recorded for posterity. This sounds
like the music I used to hear my dad playing when he was in a really good mood,
the kind of music that used to be recorded in booths with a month’s wages and
cut straight to vinyl only to launch the career of a legend. What we have here
is a Dutchman who can make a guitar sing like John Lee Hooker and has the blues
so bad it makes his voice distorted. There’s a full album to follow in
September but in the meantime I’d pour yourself a bourbon and let this wash
over you (sit on a porch if you have one, for added flavour).
