What other are saying about Mr. Sewell...

"Kirby Sewell once again proves that Alberta is the Breadbasket of Blues. The 6 tracks on this disc are ample proof that Sewell is one of the finest male Blues vocalists in Canada (easily in the Top 5)..."

Andy Grigg - Real Blues Magazine

"Kirby Sewell is an artist that I think should be getting more attention. Beautiful Tomorrow, as a song is just that: beautiful. If he is discovered the music world would be a better place to have Kirby singing in it!"

Bob Pfeifer - former President - Hollywood Records/Disney

"Just a few moments into Kirby's new self-titled CD, you will be more than convinced that this fine Canadian Blues Man, is something special."

John Vermilyea - The Blues Underground Network

KIRBY SEWELL

It took losing everything for Kirby Sewell to learn to sing the Blues...

Life has taken and life has given to Sewell, who channels those emotional experiences into stand out live performances that connect with people. Performing the Blues is a ceremony, quips the 6 ft 6 singer.

It is expressing the pain that you lived thru and celebrating that you are standing in a much, much different place!

Kirby's most recent celebration was this summer on the main stage at the 2008 Calgary International Blues Festival, an opportunity that he won being voted as Calgary's Top Blues Vocalist. Building on that momentum, the singer-songwriter just released a self-titled EP on www.pronouncedsoul.com, that bares the sound of his last name.

Live off the Floor, the 6 song EP captures the heart of Sewell, singing his own renditions of popular cover songs & new originals. Kirby's country fried soul version of Bill Withers Ain't No Sunshine is visited by the legendary ghost tones of Amos Garrett. While, Tim Williams is also a welcome guest on the porch putting the Delta guitar in Sewell's twist on Robert Johnson's Come On Into My Kitchen.

Sewell also digs into some his Bluesy crowd favourites like Albert Collin's cover of Hop Wilson's, Black Cat Bone, & B.B. Kings, cover of Chris Kenner's Something You Got. Showing off his chop's to make these cover songs his own, Kirby emerges on the EP as an Vocal Artist in his own right.

Further highlighting his gift for delivering catchy vocal melodies, the Sewell/Gunhold penned songs, Beautiful Tomorrow & Melanie explore new territory for Kirby while keeping it sophisticated and original with sassy and poignant lyrics that match the soulful jazz undertones.

Getting his music out there is important for Sewell, and his plans include touring on the summer 2009 Blues Festival Circuit & writing new songs for a full length release.

This natural blues man, with a big soul voice looks forward to sharing his unique talent with audiences everywhere
