SPARK – April 2026

Salty Dog Blues N Roots SPARK Podcast April 26.

Fresh cuts and deep grooves — from San Pedro Slim’s back-alley swing to brand new heat from Lecia Louise.

A nod to Chris Wilson, some Barnett bite, Neil Young’s timeless riff, and a strong Aussie thread with Lloyd Spiegel, Clayton Doley and The Stomp N Ramblers.

Blues, roots, soul — a bit of grit, a bit of grease… and it all lands hard.

SPARK — turn it up and let it burn!
