"If you care to know how a rowdy 1950s Chicago juke joint sounded, GA-20 are here to helpThey keep things simple and fierce...scything, growling riffs, driving grooves, blistering boogies and defiant vocals." - The Guardian (UK)

"100% Blues....A pure marvel and delight." - Rolling Stone

GA-20 clearly is on to something bigIt's a movement, a new traditional blues revivalThe dynamic, throwback blues trio are disciples of the place where traditional blues, country and rock ‘n' roll intersect"We make records that we would want to listen to," says guitarist Matt Stubbs"It's our take on the song-based traditional electric blues we love." Stubbs, guitarist/vocalist Pat Faherty, and drummer Tim Carman have been at the forefront of this traditional blues revival since they first formed in 2018It's no wonder they skyrocketed to the top of the Billboard Blues Chart

According to Stubbs, "Since we started the band we've focused on the story, the melody, and on creating a moodPlaying live as much as we do, we're finding more and more that people are discovering how cool it all isTraditional country, soul and funk music have all had these massive recent revivals, but traditional blues so far has not." With their new Colemine album, Crackdown, and an intensive tour schedule, that's all about to change

On Crackdown, GA-20's third full-length release, the band creates an unvarnished, ramshackle blues that is at once traditional and refreshingly modernExpanding on their previous releases (2019's Lonely Soul and 2021's Try It...You Might Like It! GA-20 Does Hound Dog Taylor) GA-20 finds inspiration on the edges of the genre, where early electric blues first converged with country and rock 'n' rollThe album's nine original songs include the loping, Louisiana-flavored Dry Run, the dirty, and bare-bones Easy On The Eyes and the melodic, garage-tinged Fairweather FriendWith tight, propulsive performances and a brevity and punk energy reminiscent of The Ramones, Crackdown is rowdy and fun, filled with instantly memorable, and well-crafted songs
