The first studio album by the up-and-coming multicultural blues rock band BLUES PILLS has debuted at #78 on the American Billboard Heatseekers chart. The release has already made giant waves in Europe, debuting at #4 on the German Media Control chart – an astounding accomplishment for any new band’s first full-length offering.
“We simply don't know what to say, words can't even express how we feel, ” states the band. “Thank you for the love and support! We love you back <3.”
The follow-up to 2013’s 4-song Devil Man EP, Blues Pills was produced by Don Alsterberg (GRAVEYARD, SOUNDTRACK OF OUR LIVES, THE INTERNATIONAL NOISE CONSPIRACY) and features artwork by world renowned Dutch artist Marijke Koger-Dunham (THE BEATLES, GEORGE HARRISON, ERIC CLAPTON).
