Goldfish Blues on LP

"It's amazing where your instrument will take you," reflects Will Jacobs - and when the acclaimed 29-year-old bandleader looks back up the tracks from his latest album, Goldfish Blues, his backstory feels like a wheelspinning road movie. Stick a pin in Jacobs' early timeline and you'll find a teenage guitarist with an old-soul touch, backing up the blues-club veterans of his native Chicago and adding his own thumbprint to the Windy City lineage sparked by towering figures like Muddy Waters and Buddy Guy.
