Nashville, TN…August 23, 2010…It
was on May 1st and 2nd, 2010 that two days of
torrential rain caused floods that devastated Nashville in what was
declared the most devastating floods to the area in 500 years. The water
forced thousands from their homes, submerged some of the city's most
prestigious landmarks and destroyed the gear of scores of musicians.
Gibson USA plant, the world’s premiere musical instrument manufacturer and
leader in music technology, found that it too had been severely impacted
by the flood. Read the story at

Bharath and his Rhythm Four
- Tsunami! Bharath,
the harmonist and singer plays harp like the fathers of the blues such
as Little Walter and Sonny Boy Williamson II. However he’s “one of a
kind”. His voice sounds like Big Walter Horton and sometime Muddy
Waters. Real traditional blues “Chicago style”. This recording should be
used as a template on how a good blues record should sound like.
Tsunami! is a great old school style of blue’s record with great
original songs, some covers and passionate musicians. www.myspace.com/bharathandhisrhythmfour
