The Backsell with Jason Vivone - Real Souls, Real Blues
Advertisement
Join host Jason Vivone for The Backsell: Real Souls, Real Blues—a powerful two-hour exploration of pure, unfiltered blues heritage, standing up for the real deal in an era of digital imitations.
With machine-generated AI tracks increasingly masquerading as "lost tapes," Jason cuts straight through the synthetic noise to spotlight the living soul, grit, and undeniable humanity of the original pioneers. Across two curated hours, he’ll celebrate the irreplaceable artistry of trailblazers like Memphis Minnie, Big Mama Thornton, Pee Wee Crayton, Junior Wells, and more—proving that no algorithm can ever replicate their true heart, pain, and triumph.
Throughout the evening, Jason weaves deep historical storytelling with timeless recordings, holding up the raw emotion and singular style that define these legends. Played through our reference-grade audio system, every soaring guitar bend, booming vocal belt, and sharp harmonica line will fill the room with dynamic, organic authenticity.
Take your seat, order a drink at the bar, and honor the true blues masters in pure, unadulterated hi-fi sound.
Just like in radio broadcasting, Jason will "backsell" each set, providing insightful commentary and anecdotes that illuminate the history, influences, and cultural significance of the music you're hearing. It's a chance to rediscover old favorites, discover new gems, and gain a deeper appreciation for the art of recorded sound.
