Description

When it comes to that darn guitar, Cohen can do it all. He is a hybrid artist who can effortlessly connect the strains of hundreds of influences into his own sound.

Sour Mash, Rich Cohen's 3rd release in two years, is yet another display of Richs awesome diversity; this time hopping around various flavors of the Blues with a rocking take on the classic Slim Harpo tune Shake Your Hips, Richs jump-swing flavored instrumental Bounce and Burn, the gospel-tinged Sleepy John Estes tune Floating Bridge, a swampy vamp on Tom Waits penned 2:19 and other rocking originals by Rich that in many respects pays homage to the great blues masters whom he has harbored and treasured throughout all his music endeavours.

Killer blues, soulful vocals and fluid guitar work...
That's what Rich Cohen provides with his earnest mix of fusing blues, jazz and rock n' roll. Seasoned by an underlying vibe that conveys equal parts tribute and interpretation, Rich Cohen delivers on the promise of dropping jaws with his blazing heart-felt guitar and passion filled vocals.

Having spent many years as a touring musician and session guitarist from a wide variety of genres, Rich takes the wheel by returning to his blues roots with the release of SOUR MASH by RICH COHEN & THE BLUES PRESCRIPTION featuring harmonica virtuoso Jason Ricci. Rich called upon some great cats from New Yorks blues scene to assist in the rhythm section: Barry Harrison on drums, who played with Johnny and Shemekia Copeland, George Papa George on organ plays with everybody from Mighty Sam McClain to Melvin Sparks, Rod Gross who plays with Bo Diddley also helped out on drums on a few tracks and co-producer, Admir "Dr. Blues" Hadzic on bass.

Rich Cohen performance and recording credits include:
Ricki Lee Jones, Ted Hawkins, Chuck Jackson, Buddy Miles, Lucky Peterson, Billy Branch, Magic Slim, Phoebe Snow, Gavin Degraw, Was (Not Was), Randy Jacobs & The Boneshakers, Jason Ricci, Majek Fashek, Alvaro Torres, NooVooDoo, Sweet Georgia Brown, Bill Simms, Gwen Clevland,
French Cookin' Blues Band, Moose & The Bulletproof Band, Slam Allen, Mason Casey, Gerry Gibbs, Ari Ben Moses, Blue Machine and numerous others.
Great originals, classic traditionals and a healthy dose of good time jumpin' swing.

I want The Blues Prescription to be about healing; whether by injecting people with the blues or by helping in taking them away."
