Search - Rab Mccullough :: Belfast Blues

Little known but critically acclaimed, Belfast Blues, was awarded the Best Foreign Release of a Blues Record by the Canadian magazine, Real Blues. Rab McCullough has been a fixture on the Irish music scene since the 1960?s. He recently competed in The Blues Foundation International Blues Challenge in Memphis taking 3rd place back to his native Belfast. "Belfast Blues" is known as a soundtrack to the struggle to overcome but it is also a magic potion of hope. Rab?s fiery guitar playing and soulful vocals were molded and refined on the streets of Belfast. Rab has used the Blues to take him past the turmoil of Belfast to a place where all can have good times. Rab?s blues is a passageway to that better place and time that we all seek. Pete Brown, Cream lyricist and one of Blue Storm Music?s advisors, says, "the thing about Rab that is quite interesting is that you give him a song and he comes up with a take on it that you might not have thought of." Rab McCullough dedicated "Belfast Blues" to the memory of the late, great Irish guitarist and fellow Belfast native, Rory Gallagher. Blue Storm Music has great regard and love for Rory and his music.
