The Tolono tapes

"One might imagine that being based in Champaign, Illinois would inhibit a band's potential but the Kilborn Alley has thrived in their college town background, issuing four previous albums and being serial nominees in the Blues Blast and Blues Music Awards, including Blues Blast wins for The Sean Costello Rising Star Award in 2009 and Song Of The Year in 2010 ("Better Off Now"). This collection also shows that a visiting blues artist may well get the opportunity to lay down some music while in the Kilborns' home patch as a slew of great blues musicians add their talents to these recordings which were made in three separate sessions in 2015/6 at Matt Talbot's studio in Tolono, Il, hence the title ... "Sure Is Hot" adds a rap from Cerbo. This album is high quality and very much worth hearing".
