The Devil and the Almighty Blues formed in 2001 with Paul Sanchez on vocals and guitar, David Barard on bass, and Eric Heigle on drums. They came together in New Orleans, drawing from blues traditions while developing their own approach. Their debut album 'Root to Root' came out in 2003, followed by records like 'Blood and Bone' in 2007 and 'Devil's Dance' in 2012.
Their music includes songs like 'Root To Root,' 'Lay Down,' and 'The Ghosts Of Charlie Barracuda.' The band's straightforward blues style sometimes drew attention for its directness, including some pushback at a festival appearance in 2010. They kept working, releasing 'The Mighty Fire' in 2018.
Keep it compact: a lyric you come back to, a live memory, or the part of the catalog you would point someone toward first.
