Famed Blues-Rocker Coco Montoya Celebrates New Album at Jammin Java!
Award-winning, internationally renowned blues-rock guitarist, singer and songwriter Coco Montoya will celebrate the release of his sixth Alligator Records album (and first release in four years), Writing On The Wall, with a live performance at Jammin Java in Vienna on Thursday, April 18, 2024. Mentored by the “Master of the Telecaster,” Albert Collins, and schooled by a decade on the road with John Mayall, Montoya has a hard-edged sound and style all his own. Since his debut album in 1995 (which won him the Blues Music Award for Best New Artist), Montoya’s endlessly inventive guitar work and passionate, hard-hitting vocals have kept him at the top of the blues world. With Writing On The Wall, Montoya delivers what he is already calling one of the best records he’s ever made. For the very first time on Alligator, he decided to bring his road-tested band—noted keyboardist and songwriter Jeff Paris (Keb’ Mo’, Bill Withers), bassist Nathan Brown, and drummer Rena Beavers—into the studio with him. Between the camaraderie of the long-time bandmates and the sheer talent of all involved, the results have left Coco, in his words, “over the moon.” Upon its September 1, 2023 release, Writing On The Wall debuted at #1 on the Billboard Blues Chart.
