With his fluid phrasing, resonant tone, and expressive performances, one could believe Spencer Mackenzie was born on Beale Street. They, however, would be wrong. The lauded JUNO-nominated blues-rock artist hails from Southern Ontario and has steadily earned accolades, and the attention of blues aficionados from around the World.
This Maple Blues Award winner has been writing and recording true blues, showcasing the raw emotion and honesty the genre demands. There’s a familiarity and ease with which he approaches the music, almost as though it flows through rather than from him. The energy of his work is infectious, permeating through the listener until they, too, feel the heartbeat of the blues.
Spencer's unique sound in his new upcoming album ‘Empty Chairs’ embodies this gritty, introspective style with electrifying guitar featuring punchy riffs, soaring organ, dynamic vocals and an explosive rhythm section.
Some of his most notable performances include the Montreal International Jazz Festival, Festival d'Été, Moulin Blues Ospel, Ribs & Blues Raalte and Kulturring Schöppingen Blues Festival alongside acts such as Walter Trout, Fantastic Negrito, Samantha Fish & Jesse Dayton, just to name a few. With an electrifying presence and a new album tour on the horizon, this left-handed guitar slinger shows no signs of slowing down, delivering a performance that leaves audiences buzzing long after the final note.
