Michael Pollitt packs a mean punch of psychedelic voodoo blues, and rock’n’roll soul. He knows his way around a slide, and isn't afraid to conjour a little lyrical voodoo mysticism. The ‘Motown meets 52nd Street’ bass grooves bring the ‘deep pocket’ back to rock with wild abandon that walks the line between reckless and incendiary.

"Michael Pollitt ..sure is an interesting fellow."- Matt Fredrick, PBS

As Mr Black & Blues, he beat out Russell Morris and Paul Kelly to be Rhythms Magazine Australian Artist of the Year in 2013/14 with a swag of local and international awards and festival appearances, and two independently produced #1 Australian Blues Roots Airplay Chart albums.

No other artist has had two #1 records in the same year or two albums in the top #15 at the same time in Australian chart history which led Jeff Jenkins (Inpress, ABC) to describe him as a "brilliant player.. a remarkable album. And it heralds the arrival of a new blues star”.

Michael has also returned to his London session playing roots and has been an occasional touring band member for OAM and Australian Songwriting Hall Of Fame’r, Kate Ceberano.

The album is now ready to be launched in Australia, Europe, and the Americas by Michael’s own BREAKNECK RECORDS. Available now on BREAKNECK RECORDS website, BANDCAMP, and AMRAP AIRIT!!!

Supported on the night by Ken & The Cost of Living and Special Guests.
