Description
Written for Ryan’s daughter, Blues for Josie Rose is a 24 bar blues with a driving bass vamp and memorable melody. Influenced by jazz language from the 1960s, the piece includes a full band shout chorus with plenty of solo space to feature various instruments throughout the ensemble. This piece lends itself nicely to various fast tempos, from medium up to burning! Recorded on numerous albums, the version from Ryan Oliver with Strings closely resembles this big band arrangement. Push your ensemble with an original Canadian modern up-temp blues that will be sure to be a crowd pleaser!
