Woody Harris' about the EPs 'Bluish' and 'Edgework': "…the six-song Bluish sound(s) positively colorful, full of tension and release, and grounded in the more familiar comforts of French Impressionism and American jazz. The influences on both EPs—Debussy, for sure, along with Bill Evans—are the same, but the emotional content on tracks like “Driftin’ on By” and “Rock Friday” make Bluish feel like a different world, caught in a twilight of sadness and regret. It’s here that Harris’ playing is at its fullest and most dynamic; a perfect meeting place of folk, jazz, and classical". ( May/June 2022 Acoustic Guitar). The tracks are rich in harmonies like jazz, nuanced in tone and execution like classical, and yet soulful and expressive like blues. He expands both the vocabulary and syntax of the guitar, resulting in uniquely expressive and achingly soulful music. Check out the new album 'Coming To My Senses' issued April 21, 2023.
