To say that Carlos del Junco plays the harmonica is like saying “Jimi Hendrix plays guitar.” He delivers music that’s simultaneously sophisticated and raw, blurring the boundaries between blues and jazz.

The emphasis in on blues, but Carlos and his band are not afraid to strike off in other directions, delivering a seamless fusion of New Orleans second line grooves, swing, Latin, hip-hop or ska melodies, and swampy roots rock.
