The Baroni Blow-Up 'I Wanna' ft. Shy but Flyy limited blue 7" single

The Baroni Blow-Up

I Wanna ft. Shy But Flyy 7"

Rock’n’roll connoisseurs The Hillbilly Moon Explosion don’t rest on their laurels!  Oliver Baroni, stand-up bassist and co-vocalist has a new side-project with a flexible group of musicians, under the moniker The Baroni Blow-Up.  In keeping with the Englishman’s worldwide viewpoint from his base in Switzerland, it’s an international affair.

The band-members are American, though two of them were found in London – guitarist Andy Kandil, a session favourite and veteran of psychobilly legends Mad Sin amongst others, and drummer Tuck Nelson, who also co-engineered recordings in his London studio.  On vocals is Shy But Flyy, the celebrated blues and jazz singer from Long Beach, CA.  The A-side song I Wanna is an obscure punk song original by Berlin band Hot Boogie Chilean; the flip Free is a Shy But Flyy original.  And the single’s artwork originated in Spain.

HME’s Emanuela Hutter has also issued a new side-project together with American musicians – Goose Bumps, an album produced in Chicago by Hi-Style Records's Jimmy Sutton (JD McPherson, Pokey LaFarge, The Bellfuries). Sutton assembled an all-star cast of musicians, including Alex Hall (engineer, drums) and Joel Paterson (guitar).  In February she premiered the songs with the band at The Water Rats, Kings Cross, London.
