Seth Lee Jones - Tulsa Custom (2024) [Hi-Res]

“Jones is probably the most ear-catching, head-turning blues/roots guitarist since Derek Trucks” - Guitar World

“Seth Lee Jones is one of the most intriguing American guitarists working right now and he’s going to take a whole bunch of people to school if he’s given half a chance.” - Rock & Blues Muse

Seth Lee Jones not only relishes his Oklahoma roots, but he actively nurtures them to ensure they remain real and relevant. His sophomore studio release, Tulsa Custom, reflects his strong work ethic, continually developing his unique playing style that complements his original material and fresh interpretations of covers. Distinguished in any number of ways, with songs spawned from a decidedly personal perspective, include the visceral delivery of opening cut, “110,” the steadfast strut of songs such as “Mr. Evil” and “Outta My Mind”, and the brash boogie style of “Good Dog”, played in 5/4 time, an untypical time signature for blues & Americana.

“The process seems to come naturally these days”, says Jones. No surprise, given his dynamite rhythm section of Bo Hallford – bass and Matt Teegarden – drums, providing the perfect platform to launch his raw, unbridled roots & blues rock hot rod. Recorded almost entirely live at Teegarden Studios in Tulsa, OK, the passion and energy that is captured is palpable. In the words of Goldmine—”It’s pure electricity.”
