Review and Interview: Cedric Burnside & Lightnin' Malcolm
Cedric Burnside & Lightnin’ Malcolm
9:30 Club – Feb. 8, 2010
by Cole Stangler and Mark Waterman
Hosts, “The Cosmic American Music Radio Hour,” Saturdays 2-4 pm
At a mostly empty 9:30 Club—in stark contrast to the crowd that saw Galactic later—Cedric Burnside and Lightnin’ Malcolm took the stage for a short set of some hill country blues. Despite the sparse crowd, Burnside and Malcolm, known as the Juke Joint Duo and The Two Man Wrecking Crew, were not short on energy as they pounded out some edgy country blues.
