While more of Hart later, harpist Musselwhite ran through a set of contemporary blues repertoire, along with modern blues replete with jazz and funk overtones, showcasing his astonishing technique along with fine vocals. Not only was Musselwhite in perfect form, especially his biting licks and spiralling riffs on the harmonica, but his band was tight, soulful, and sympathetic, making Musselwhite\u2019s performance beyond worthwhile listening for any Blues fan.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.sudeepaudio.com\/saundcheck\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/Brandon-Santini.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\" wp-image-575 alignright\" src=\"https:\/\/www.sudeepaudio.com\/saundcheck\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/Brandon-Santini-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"273\" height=\"182\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.sudeepaudio.com\/saundcheck\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/Brandon-Santini-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.sudeepaudio.com\/saundcheck\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/Brandon-Santini-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.sudeepaudio.com\/saundcheck\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/Brandon-Santini-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.sudeepaudio.com\/saundcheck\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/Brandon-Santini-640x427.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.sudeepaudio.com\/saundcheck\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/Brandon-Santini.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 273px) 100vw, 273px\" \/><\/a>Not far behind on harmonica competency was a comparatively younger talent in <strong>Brandon Santini<\/strong>, from Memphis, whose originals were extremely satisfying.
