A great artist...impassioned vocals and pure inventiveness in his stellar guitar solos... He makes playing rough feel easy. Blues Music Magazine
With a sterling reputation, guitarist and vocalist Tommy Castro is one of the foremost practitioners of electric blues. Searing delivery...rousing and teeming with emotion. He is a sheer, soaring tour-de-force. Living Blues
Castro plays gritty, string-bending blues like a runaway train... a glorious blend that rocks the soul and lifts the spirits. No Depression
Soaring vocals and swirling leads... showcasing Castro's testifying, confessional vocals and resonant emotional power as a singer. AllMusic
Multiple award-winning, California-based blues and rock sensation Tommy Castro is the guitar slinging, soul-singing leader of the telepathically tight and wildly raucous Tommy Castro's band. He has released 17 previous albums over the course of his four-decade career. Each release features its own individual sound and style, ranging from horn-fueled rock and roll.
With his new album, Closer To The Bone, Castro has returned to his roots, delivering what he calls a real blues record, the way they would have made them back in the day. Closer To The Bone is the most unvarnished, straight-ahead blues release of Castro's career, one that bristles with every ounce of his dynamic energy and raw emotion.
