“Castro is one of the brightest stars in the blues soul genre. Voracious blues energy and ultimate soul power...impassioned vocals and pure inventiveness in his stellar guitar solos.” –Blues Music Magazine“Sizzling, slow-burning, gritty blues and rock...shimmering, swampy, downright funky vibes drenched with Castro’s stinging, pure and crisp lead runs and fluid, jet-fueled solos.” –Living Blues
“Soul-baring, roadhouse-meets-church, Memphis guitar licks...gritty voice...Southern colors and rootsy textures.” –Washington Post
“The hardest thing to do,” says beloved soul-blues rocker Tommy Castro, “is be yourself, take some chances and bring your fans along with you.” Throughout his long, constantly evolving career, guitarist, singer and songwriter Tommy Castro has always remained true to himself, and brought his fans along. Since his solo debut in 1994, he’s made 16 albums, each its own unique chapter in the book of Tommy Castro. Ranging from horn-fueled R&B to piping hot blues to fiery, strippeddown rock ‘n’ roll, each release is solidly built upon Castro’s unshakable musical foundation—a dynamic mix of 1960s guitar-fueled blues, Memphis-soaked, soul and East San Jose funk, driven by Castro’s grab-you-by the-collar vocals and passionate guitar work.
For Castro’s new album, a roots music odyssey entitled TOMMY CASTRO PRESENTS A BLUESMAN CAME TO TOWN, he tells a timeless story. This special project was composed by Castro along with Grammy Award winning producer Tom Hambridge. Through its 13 songs, A BLUESMAN CAME TO TOWN tells the tale of a young man working on his family farm who gets bitten by the blues bug. He masters the guitar and heads out on the road seeking fame and fortune, only to find what he’s left behind is the treasure he’s been looking for.
