John Nemeth is a Blind Pig-update-update!

Caught up with John Nemeth when he was in town this week. Great news! His new cd for Blind Pig is done. Earlier Boisee.com reported that John was going to use Charlie Musslewhite's band in San Francisco. As the schedule and venue shifted, John ending up in Texas. Now get this, John used the Anson Funderberg guys for back-up AND the Texas Horns. Wow, this could be very good. John tells us that after a full week of “thinking and playing” for 12 to 14 hours a day he has 19 cuts done. He and Blind Pig will narrow it down to 14 for the expected January release of the “John Nemeth Band.”

John reveled in the experiance of being in a studio with a full band including a horn section. “It was amazing, each instrument was dialed in and you distinctly hear ever one on the recording.” This should be a very good CD.

I ask John, why no “blues” in the bands title. “We didn’t want limit this CD in any way, also we ended up with a wide range of stuff, sure it’s bluesy but with a lot of Soul.”

Soon John gave me one of those classic smiles, and with a tip his vintage Pork Pie hat he headed to the Red Feather to catch up with some friends. Before he left I asked Mr. Nemeth where to next? He at first drew a blank, then said “Oh North Carolina I believe.”

Don't worry John you won't get lost on the road to success.
