Diesel
After the release of his blues album ‘Saturday Suffering Fools’. Diesel’s blues have never been as blues-to-the-wall as they are on Project Blues: Saturday Suffering Fools, a loose-limbed, fired-up trawl through the music that inspired one of Australia’s rock legends. “The album is like an encyclopedia of what blues is to me,” Diesel says. “You’ve got your Chicago style from the ’50s, you’ve got the ’70s funkier blues, the feral mountain blues, and there’s an Australian tinge too, that colonial, convict blues.”
The Hits & Blues tour sees Diesel aka Mark Lizotte perform tracks from this wonderful blues album, and of course, as the title suggests, the classic hits from over the years such as – “Tip of my Tongue”, “Cry in Shame”, “Come To Me”.
