Reverend Shawn Amos in You’re Gonna Miss Me video

Blues producer turned performer The Reverend Shawn Amos has released a video for his track You’re Gonna Miss Me (When I Get Home).

It’s taken from his debut album The Reverend Shawn Amos Loves You, released last year.

The Grammy-nominated exec aims to propel the blues into the mainstream, following the work of artists including Gary Clark Jr and Keb’ Mo’.

Amos tells Pop Matters: “We wanted to capture the spirit of our live shows, while bringing the blues to the pop culture conversation.”

He describes the result as “this perfect world where roadhouse blues meets old-school Hollywood musicals” and adds: “I hope folks dig it and it moves them to dive deeper into this great American music.”

He’s currently touring the US.

Not only is one-time online news editor Martin an established rock journalist and drummer, but he’s also penned several books on music history, including SAHB Story: The Tale of the Sensational Alex Harvey Band, a band he once managed, and the best-selling Apollo Memories about the history of the legendary and infamous Glasgow Apollo. Martin has written for Classic Rock and Prog and at one time had written more articles for Louder than anyone else (we think he's second now). He’s appeared on TV and when not delving intro all things music, can be found travelling along the UK’s vast canal network.
