"Billy Branch is a man who strives to keep traditions alive, but he isn't about to let his music grow stagnant, and Blues Shock shows there's plenty of fun and fresh ideas to be found in a form as time-tested as Chicago blues. It's a great set".

"The superb 'Blues Shock' is Branch's first recording as a bandleader in well over a decade ... This new album does resonate with all the exuberance of a project that has been a long time coming ... Although heavily influenced by the work of Chicago players such as Big Walter Horton and Cotton. Branch's playing has always been cleaner in tone, with a distinctive echo produced by a digital delay pedal. It's a sound that is immediately recognizable, something few harp players can claim these days".
