About this episode

Episode 98 has arrived, It’s another home run discussion on ‘Time Signatures with Jim Ervin’ as Erv welcomes a member of the next generation of the Blues, 18 year old Harrell ‘Young Rell’ Davenport. Rell has been on an absolute tear, wowing crowds in Chicago, Mississippi, and across the pond in Norway and other stops in Europe with his deep passion for those old school Blues. Billy Branch said he has never seen anyone his age deliver the Blues in the traditional fashion in his 46 years of working in the Blues in the Schools program. Yet, despite his deep skillset as a musician, Rell is humble and displays a hunger to deliver his best work to those who would have him. You are absolutely going to want to keep an eye on this young man as he continues to make his presence known in the world of the Blues!
