There seems to be renewed interest in the blues over the past few years, or a resurgence if you will. Lots of younger folks are finding blues music to be pretty cool & hip these days. There are a lot of younger players in the field these days too. I remember when Jonny Lang hit the air. I was blown away that such a young man had the grit & feeling it takes to be able to belt out the blues with such a passion. He's an excellent guitar player as well. He had commercial success for awhile, and is still a big player in the blues scene these days & only getting better in my humble opinion. With young guys like Jonny & Kenny Wayne Shepherd playing the blues guitar & Susan Tedeschi grinding out her excellent voice& guitar playing (sometimes with her husband, Derek Trucks) there is no doubt in my mind that the blues is here to stay.
