Last week, we got a scintillating taste of Buddy Guy's new album, The Blues is Alive and Well, with the release of its first single, a powerful take on Sonny Boy Williamson's "Nine Below Zero." Now, Guy has released another single from the album, "Blue No More."
The song—a tender duet with English singer/songwriter James Bay—can be listened to above.
Set for a June 15 release via Silvertone/RCA Records, The Blues is Alive and Well also features guest appearances from Mick Jagger, Keith Richards and Jeff Beck. The follow-up to 2015's Grammy-winning Born To Play Guitar—it was produced by longtime collaborator Tom Hambridge. You can check out its tracklist below.
