Blues

A luminous blend of the best in Blues: From the early pioneers to the artists of today.

There seems to be no other genre of music that has withstood the test of time as Blues. Internet music service RadioIO proudly presents their IO Business Music channel, Blues, which combines the best of classic blues styles like Louisiana blues, Delta blues, Chicago blues, Memphis blues, boogie-woogie and electric blues along with the many styles that have been transformed throughout the decades until today.

This sound, that originated in the deep south of the United States and is often associated with jazz, rhythm and blues and rock and roll, continues to be an mainstay in current popular culture as many artists now credit the early pioneers with molding them into what they are today.

Thanks to a resurgence in the 80's, blues and blues rock have gained in notoriety thanks to its accessibility on the internet and each region of the United States claiming it's own scene in blues style. Featuring only clean versions and tracks carefully chosen based on lyrical content, this channel is rated MA-14 for mild mature situations.

Listen for: B.B. King, Stevie Ray Vaughan, Buddy Guy, Etta James, Bettye LaVette, Howlin’ Wolf, Hugh Laurie, Muddy Waters, Junior Wells, John Lee Hooker, Joe Bonamassa, Walter Trout, Tedeschi Trucks Band, James Cotton, and Keb’ Mo’.
