Leo “Bud” Welch is the real deal: an 82-year-old gospel and blues musician from Bruce, Miss., who never thought he’d perform outside of his state—never mind all across the U.S. and Europe. Yet his debut album, the all-gospel Sabougla Voices, impressed with its honesty. This follow-up features producer Bruce Watson guiding a raw, powerful blues band to accompany Welch’s authentic, aged vocals and raw, heartfelt guitar lines. Neo-traditionalist Jimbo Mathus duels on guitar for “Girl in the Holler” and produced the traditional “Poor Boy.” Welch’s hard life spurs on the passion of “I Woke Up” and “So Many Turnrows.”
