POOR BOY’S SOUL | BURN DOWN

 

 

Poor Boy’s Soul (Trevor Jones) is self-releasing his debut EP, Burn Down, on November 15th. Indeed, it is a barn burner of an album, with seven songs of blues infused with punk, rock and country. Armed with a slide guitar, a tambourine, a stripped down drum kit and stomping, thumping boots, Jones soulfully belts out delta blues. Some of his work is reminiscent of The Black Keys and The White Stripes, with amped up guitar and raw, heartfelt vocals, and a dirty Southern sound. With songs delivered with such conviction, including standouts “Movin’ to the City”, “Ain’t Comin’ Back No More”, and “Annalisa”, it is easy to believe Jones’ reputation as a rail riding, guitar pickin’ tramp and one hell of a musician. – Written by SMarx
