House Is Burnin

The prolific Calvin Owens is back with his multi-faceted orchestra. This CD features an impressive cast of guest artists from his hometown Houston, Texas. Supported by the consummate musicianship of the savvy players in his large ensemble, there are vibrant appearances by veteran saxophonist Grady Gains, as well as vocal leads by the passionate Trudy Lynn, the impeccable Gloria Edwards and the brilliant Leonard Low Down Brown. And when he's not finessing his trumpet, Calvin delivers some of the best singing on record to date. Calvin has been named for the second year in succession as Most Outstanding Blues Musician in the category of sax, trumpet, or horn section by the Living Blues Magazine' Living Blues Critics Awards.
