On his first full-length album, Charlie Barath takes the blues into tasty new territory.
Barath treats us to haluski, pierogi, halupki and the smell of kielbasa in the kitchen on High Ball & a Covered Dish, a song inspired by the cooking of his mother, a first generation Polish-American.
Forget the catfish, cornbread, beans and barbecue typically on the lyrical menu of blues songs, Barath s High Ball & a Covered Dish kicks dupa (look it up) with its ode to Eastern European heritage carrying over to his mom wearing a babushka.
The Center Township bluesman s whole Just Me and My Friend(s) album brims with fun and fresh concepts, from the Woody Woodpecker Theme intro and outro to Losin My Mind over You to the quite-literal narrative in She Drives Me to Drink to the playful remorse in Little Turtle Nightlight, the only object the singer has got left after a serial-cheatin , heart-breakin woman does her damage.

So recently, my poetic son wrote and shared some new amazing lyrics with me, To me, they rang of oppression, racism, and poverty. I said, “hey let me put those words into music”. As I developed the song, it started to become clear to me that was about a forgotten man; you know, that man who lived during the Depression Era of the 1930s?

Goldiggers of 1933 whereby the last scene is called “Remember My Forgotten Man” sung by Joan Blondell and Etta Moten. This song turns that movie into an unforgettable everlasting homage to the reality of that terrible poverty-stricken era in America; a classic that should be on your list of 100 movies to see before you die. So if you have NOT seen this movie, go watch it. It’s amazing! Anyways….
In launching his campaign, the Sioux City legislator cited his career as a solider, trial lawyer and state senator in which he repeatedly fought "for the underdogs of this world."
‘Just the Beginning’: Trump Painter Jon McNaughton Looks Toward 2021, Shares Message of Hope
Traditional art lovers started hearing the name Jon McNaughton a lot more often in 2019, after his cheeky painting of President Trump “Crossing the Swamp” went viral on Twitter.

“That one really hit a nerve,” McNaughton jokingly told The Epoch Times in a Zoom call, adding that those kinds of paintings get him noticed the most.
