Musicians or Blues Fan? Take a music break.

My husband Dave, besides being a very talented graphic designer who specializes in album cover design, has another business, SDPickups, making hand-wound vintage style guitar pickups. Recently Dave has has posted demos of a couple of his products on YouTube. The latest is a jump blues style demo of his newest pickup, the Pig Ninety, played by his friend Vyasa Dodson of the Insomniacs out of Portland, OR. The Insomiacs just got a recording contract with Delta Grooves Music and start a West Coast tour next week. They were named Best New Act of 2006 by the Portland Blues Association. No one as young as Vyasa (Vee-Oss) should be so talented!!! Check it out!

Suzanne, sounds like a great business your hubby has. Gotta love those vintage guitars.

Thanks Tim! Dave has fun! And I enjoy listening.

Suzanne, your hubby is a lucky guy. I play guitar but when I sing, even the roosters yell back regardless of the time of day. My wife's patience only goes so far.

Tim, do you perform anywhere? Dave can sing reasonably well, but he hates singing. That's a real handicap when blues jams are your only venue. Fortunately the jam leaders have come to appreciate him for his playing alone, so they arrange for him to play when there's someone who can sing with him. Vyasa, who both sings and plays well, is his favorite playing partner. There's also a harp player/lead vocalist in Portland with whom Dave likes to play. I can't think of his name but he looks like Danny DeVito.
