Blues Corner’s latest single, “Piggy Bank Blues”, immediately draws the listener in with its raw emotions of financial stress and personal sacrifice, themes that almost everyone can relate to. With its hypnotic groove and gritty, loose-limbed riffs, the track offers an unfiltered look at the pressures of trying to stay afloat. The lyrics are sharp yet relatable, making this not just an anthem for blues lovers, but also a reflection of the everyday struggles people face with money and life. From the moment the track kicks in, the band’s energy is undeniable, blending modern blues with classic soul in a way that feels both fresh and familiar.
The song is the first glimpse into Blues Corner’s upcoming double album, a project that will explore both Chicago Blues and Country Rock. Phil Roman and Seb Oroval, the heart of Blues Corner, have crafted something deeply personal. After years of success in the UK blues circuit, Phil decided to return to his roots in France to dedicate himself fully to the genre. Alongside Seb, a self-taught musician, they formed Blues Corner with the vision of bringing the true spirit of blues to a modern audience. The release of “Piggy Bank Blues” marks the beginning of this journey, showcasing a sound that combines tradition with a contemporary edge.
Sincerity and energy lie at the core of Blues Corner’s approach to music. Their love for the blues is evident, and their ability to express complex emotions through simple yet powerful melodies sets them apart in today’s scene. “Piggy Bank Blues” is more than just a song; it’s a declaration of intent. While it speaks directly to the financial pressures we all face, it does so with honesty and grit, creating a connection that feels timeless. With their debut double album set to release in 2025, Blues Corner is poised to deliver a refreshing and compelling new voice in modern blues.
