20 Years of Bop and Blues by Mike Goudreau Jazz Band Mike Goudreau Jazz Band : 20 Years of Bop and Blues.
 Boppin', swingin' joie de vivre whether it's jazz or blues.

In celebration of 20 years of performing, writing and producing blues music, Mike Goudreau and The Boppin' Blues Band are proud to present their anniversary album, 20 Years of Bop and Blues. The record offers 13 new original songs ranging from swinging to funky, from New Orleans to blues-rock, with some southern soul and gospel thrown in for good measure!

This latest Boppin' offering features Mike Goudreau on vocals and guitar, Jonathan Boudreau on bass, Jean-François Bégin on drums, David Élias on tenor and baritone sax, Serge Arsenault on trombone, and Maxime St-Pierre on trumpet. The BBB is joined by guests Lorrie Goodman on B3 organ, and special guest Pierre Lacocque, of the Chicago band Mississippi Heat, on harmonica.

All songs are by Mike Goudreau, including the help of co-composers Lorrie Goodman, Jonathan Boudreau and Jean-François Bégin. Also participating to the French lyrics to one song is long-time BBB friend Michel Aubin.
