  1. Hey. I just wanted to thank you for playing our recordings (the Elgins) on your show today. I have been listening in for a while now. I enjoy it every time, some favorites and a lot of "new" stuff too. Keep it up!

    thanks again, Fredrik Zahl Marken

  2. Hi there, thank you so much! you guys are so authentic it's crazy. Jeff gave me Back to Chicago a couple of weeks ago and it's been on repeat in my car (and i drive a lot haha). i actually wasn't keen on modern blues until i heard you all. thanks for listening and letting me know! :)
