20-year-old blues-rock sensation Amani Burnham has captivated millions on social media with his raw talent and magnetic presence. Today, the Connecticut-based artist is stepping out from behind the screen with his debut album, Roots & Wings, on Blind Pig Records. The 12-track collection showcases Amani's remarkable guitar work—played uniquely with his right-hand thumb rather than a pick—alongside soulful vocals and introspective songwriting. From the turbo-charged instrumental "Fastlane" to the deeply personal title track reflecting on his Ethiopian roots, the album crackles with groovy blues-rock riffs, cosmic solos, and stinging vibrato. Recorded at the renowned Carriage House Studios with a classic power-trio setup, Roots & Wings honors the legacy of blues-rock giants while heralding a bold new voice for a new generation. The sessions were tailored around Amani's spontaneity, resulting in recordings that feel raw and full of wonder. “Blues, like nature, has to keep evolving,” Amani says. “You can trace heavy metal, prog rock, grunge, everything, back to it. I want to be a part of that evolution.”
