acoustic in-studio: The Cash Box Kings [Alligator Records]
Tune into WMSE as The Cash Box Kings join Sonia on the airwaves for a live, acoustic set before their show at Shank Hall later that night!
“With blasting harmonica, soul-deep vocals, original songs and sizzling guitars, The Cash Box Kings boast an array of talent to satisfy blues lovers of every shape and size. On Royal Mint they make old blues new as they continue to create new blues classics, with, according to Elmore magazine, “just the right amount of juke joint grit.” Living Blues says The Cash Box Kings are “straight from the golden era of the blues,” boasting “an impressive line-up of A-list players. Joe Nosek feels Little Walter and Slim Harpo in the essence of his soul. Singer Oscar Wilson could be right out of [Chicago’s famed] Checkerboard Lounge in its glory days. The Cash Box Kings are a dancing and listening pleasure.”
