Description :
| Here's what a recent issue of Blues Revue had to say about Papa Joe Grappa's debut CD: “Too White to Sing the Blues is a refreshingly unserious collection of humorous blues... Papa Joe Grappa is an LA-based songwriter whose humor hits the mark whether his target is SUVs, aging, church sex scandals, plastic surgery culture, medical marijuana, Mary Kay Letourneau or whites singing the blues. With an accomplished band and tasty guitar, Grappa delivers his pointed messages well.” Papa Joe is backed by a stellar group of musicians who've played and recorded with Bonnie Raitt, Steve Miller, Dave Mason, Van Morrison and Bruce Springsteen. He's also backed on vocals by the Sweet Inspirations, backup singers to Elvis Presley. Papa Joe Grappa is unique and has been described as "the square peg in the round hole of the blues." |
