I think someone here mentioned something about KWS well here is of his songs. I saw him live 2 years ago amazing show. This is my favorite style of blues. It is why blues are high up on my list next to metal!

Love this guy. His last album 10 Days Out is a great blues record. He's teamed up with some old blues legends. The DVD that comes with it is pretty cool too. He's playing with some old bluesmen that are like 90 years old and holding their own against this young whipper-snapper.
He came on the scene around the same time as Jonny Lang and both were promoted as the "next Stevie Ray Vaughn". KWS did a nice job forging his own sound while Jonny seemed to fade into obscurity. I'm glad he (KWS) ditched the singer from the early albums and does his own vocals now.
I saw him open for somebody years ago, but I can't remember who it was. Might have been Aerosmith, not sure though.
EDIT: according to Wikipedia, he was the opening act for the Stones on their 1999 tour. That's probably where I saw him.

Actually KWS doesn't sing much and Noah Hunt is back doing vocals!

I wasn't aware of that. I didn't dislike Noah, but I thought Kenny handled his own vocals just fine. Oh well.

I saw him again last summer. The guy is dang good, I see him making music for years to come. I have most of his music but have yet to get any of Jonny Lang's. Don't know why I like him too.

I like KWS, he's never had a good singer IMO though. Live On is his best work and I also like the 10 Days Out CD a lot.
