We were fortunate enough to have acclaimed blues artist Joe Pitts, who's currently doing a brief tour of Georgia before heading back to his home state of Arkansas. Joe is a powerful, soulful & multi-talented performer who has been compared to guitarists like Warren Haynes, Michael Burks, Larry McCray, Walter Trout and Joe Bonamassa. Although his influences range from Duane Allman and Dickey Betts to Roy Buchanan, Joe is best known for his slide guitar work with the band Liquid Groove Mojo. Touted as one of Arkansas' best bands, the International touring band has played hundreds of shows, touring Europe and the Midwest/Midsouth. Joe has been widely recongized for his vocals as well, having been chosen as one of the best vocalists of the year at the 2006 Indie Artist Radio awards. Sweet!

Joe came by to talk with Frank "the Hounddog" about touring, Joe's music, and all sorts of other interesting stuff. We hope to have Joe back in the Doghouse again soon.
