Orphans: Vinyl LP

Pre-Order Item. Release Date Subject to Change.
Label: Colemine
Release Date: 29th May

Colemine neatly wrap up GA-20's first chapter with the label with this package of live tracks, one-off singles and fan favourites. It captures GA-20 outside of an album format and being a pure blues rocking soul outfit in it's purest and rawest form. 

One of the more defining features of Blues upstarts GA-20’s approach to traditional Blues music is their unwavering dedication to playing the songs they love, or as bandleader Matthew Stubbs puts it, “we play the music we would want to hear.” Those in the know have been captivated by the visceral energy the band brings to the heavy Blues arena, and the songs they choose to perform. With ORPHANS, the band has assembled a collection of Blues and Bluesadjacent tracks that fit handily within that parameter. The songs found on ORPHANS are just that – singular tunes heard only at live shows, singles released between albums, and simple favorites that the band (Stubbs, Cody Nilsen & Josh Kiggans) have been itching to lay down. And just as Blues is a tradition of borrowing, sharing and transformation, these melodies and words are similarly reinterpreted and reimagined, orphans and strays lovingly adopted and given new breath. The fan demand for a proper full length release of these songs, along with the mandate to showcase Nilsen’s vocals and auxiliary guitar mastery, are realized here in physical form.
