Description
When it comes to blues in German lands, there is no way around Bad Temper Joe. The grumpy blues bard from the East Westphalian province has developed into an absolute phenomenon of the blues scene in recent years. This is evidenced not only by the numerous albums with equally raw and compelling songs that BTJ has released in the meantime. It is also evidenced by winning the German Blues Challenge and nominations for various blues awards and the German Record Critics' Award. With dedication to the old bluesmen from the Mississippi Delta, Bad Temper Joe effortlessly transports the often disbelieved blues into the 21st century – and with all the qualities that define blues at the highest level: excellent songwriting, strong sense of tradition, captivating performance. BTJ also makes waves internationally. In 2020, he was the only European act to reach the final of the International Blues Challenge in Memphis, USA. The British Blues Matters Magazine rightly comments: "It’s hard to believe that the sounds of the Mississippi-Delta have relocated to Germany, but they have."
