Following his debut album, 'Karmic Blues', which topped the Amazon Blues Charts in 2019, one of the Blues album's of 2021, Ajay Srivastav’s 'Powerless', is due to be released on Friday 25th June, of which the infectious, 'Golden', is today's Video Of The Day. Unabashed in its feeling for joy, it sounds like Chuck Berry navigating his giddy way across the Indian subcontinent, whispering “We are golden because we’re alive”. Indeed, Ajay's soulful, genre-stradling songs are the product of a crossfire hurricane of influences, drawing equally from the Mississippi Delta that sired the Blues and the Varanasi Ghats where prayers are performed beside the Ganges.
