Виниловая пластинка Toby Lee – Aquarius (2 LP, релиз 2021)

At just 16-years-old, Toby Lee has experienced more than many musicians do in a lifetime. He has performed with everyone from Joe Bonamassa and Buddy Guy to McFly, appeared on some of the world’s biggest TV shows, and enjoyed viral moments that have resulted in over 400 million video views. The immensely gifted guitarist, vocalist and songwriter is now set to achieve another landmark moment when his long awaited debut album ‘Aquarius’ is released on June 18th.
‘Aquarius’ underlines exactly why Toby has become the most hotly tipped blues guitarist of his generation. But while the blues provides the beating heart of the album - see the emotional epic ‘The Search For Happiness’ or his take on the Leiber/Stoller classic ‘Kansas’ - it demonstrates that he’s a truly versatile musician. Performed with finesse, feeling and a youthful exuberance, ‘Aquarius’ covers everything from frenetic rockabilly (‘Love Bug’) to swaggering hard rock (‘Real Love’) and the pulverising Royal Blood meets Black Stone Cherry attack of ‘You Don’t Know Me’. His eclectic sound is best encapsulated in the new single ‘Take The Wheel’. It’s a Gen Z answer to an old school driving anthem: the purity and immediacy of a classic AC/DC riff within a blues-tinged hard rocker that recalls Bad Company.
