EARLVILLE – In tough times, the Blues are a national resource for fighting our troubles with creativity, humor and good times. One band that is fighting the blues with the blues is the Peter Karp & Sue Foley Band on their new CD release tour for Beyond the Crossroads at the EOH Arts Cafe on Saturday. Their 4-piece electric band will rock the blues!

Peter Karp is a master songsmith with an art for spinning true-to-life emotions, humor, and candor. Sue Foley is considered to be one of the finest blues/roots artists working today with a Juno (Canadian Grammy). The band was last at the EOH in the summer of 2010 with their HE SAID - SHE SAID tour. It was an extraordinarily romantic Blues show that was a collaboration of two of Blues’ gifted talents. He Said-She Said came together when the two began sharing letters.

Blind Pig Records notes that: “Beyond the Crossroads marks the newest chapter in the collaboration between these two noted singer-songwriter guitarists. A high voltage, plank spankin’, piano boogyin’, slide guitar stompin’, blues-rocking CD that showcases twelve brilliantly crafted and unique original compositions. It’s a loud celebration of triumph over tragedy, optimism over despair and faith over hopelessness.”
