He's released 17 previous albums over the course of his four-decade career. Each release features its own individual sound and style\, ranging from horn-fueled R&B to piping hot blues and soul to fiery\, stripped-down rock 'n' roll. With his new album\, Closer To The Bone\, Castro has returned to his roots\, delivering what he calls "a real blues record\, the way they would have made them back in the day." Closer To The Bone is the most unvarnished\, straight-ahead blues release of Castro's career\, one that bristles with every ounce of his dynamic energy and raw emotion. Tommy Castro & The Painkillers' deceptively simple approach on Closer To The Bone delivers one thrilling performance after another. Says Castro\, "Here\, I'm not the contemporary guy\, not the rock guy\, not the soul guy. This is the deeper blues side of me. I know\, with these songs\, I am at my most authentic." "A great artist impassioned vocals and pure inventiveness in his stellar guitar solos He makes playing rough feel easy."
