Exclusive track premiere of heavy, hypnotic and trippy ‘ATL’ by GA-20, out today via Colemine / Karma Chief Records.

GA-20’s new standalone digital single ‘ATL’ follows the recent release of their third studio album ‘Crackdown’.

Guitarist Matt Stubbs (also blues legend Charlie Musselwhite’s longtime guitarist) says of the song, “Recorded late night after a show in Atlanta, ‘ATL’ is inspired by the legendary Muddy Waters’ album ‘Electric Mud,’ the landmark musical foray of traditional Chicago blues colliding with psychedelic music.”

GA-20 was formed by friends Pat Faherty and Matthew Stubbs in Boston, MA in 2018. The project was born out of their mutual love of heavy traditional Blues, R&B, and Rock & Roll of the late 50s and early 60s. Faherty and Stubbs bonded over legendary artists like Lazy Lester, J.B. Lenoir, Earl Hooker, Buddy Guy, Otis Rush and Junior Wells. Feeling a void in current music, the duo have set out to write, record and perform a modern version of this beloved art form. Joined by drummer Tim Carman in 2019, GA-20 is a trio of 2 guitars, vocals and drums. Raw, passionate and honest performance, both on stage and in the studio, is the only goal. GA-20 released their debut album ‘Lonely Soul’ Oct 18th 2019 on Karma Chief / Colemine Records.

Stubbs has spent the past 11 years as guitarist for Blues legend Charlie Musselwhite. During that time he has also backed up and toured with such Blues giants as John Hammond, James Cotton, Junior Watson and James Harman. Stubbs also leads his own original instrumental psych-rock band, The Antiguas.
