Sam Llanas, formerly of the BoDeans, joins Big Blend Radio to discuss newly released 13th studio album and fourth major solo effort, Return of the Goya - Part 1. The album showcases his long love of classic country music (his earliest musical memory is hearing and being mesmerized by Hank Williams). These eleven works are a loving tribute to a style of music witnessing simple songs with strong melodies and harmonies that told stories resonating in the heart.
Produced by lap steel & electric guitarist Sean Williamson & mastered by longtime collaborator Gary Tanin, the recording features bassist Matt Turner, drummer Kevin Dunphy, drummer Ryan Schiedermayer, and trombonist John Simons. www.SamLlanas.com
