L’Escaut Blues

If the blues can thrive along the swampy banks of the Mississippi, then it should also succeed along the Scheldt. Classic blues has traditionally been the domain of women—strong women, who with powerful voices sing of the hardships and pleasures of life and love.

Nette Mortelmans brings this somewhat forgotten branch of the blues back to life with L'Escaut Blues.

Authentic and powerful, as if the 1920s had only just begun.
