Once again John Tetrault is full of surprises. On ‘New Orleans Beads’ JT goes a whole new direction while maintaining the guitar mastery we've come to expect. This disc will sweep you to Bourbon Street and beyond. John does NOTHING half way, he jumps chest deep in the sound that popular music owes so much to. I’ve heard John Tetrault play blues, pop, swing & rock and he never disappoints. When he goes a new direction it’s all that, but with a new found vigor and attitude. I love it. - Darren Harvey, Darrin Harvey, CIJK - 89.3 K-Rock
