is wonderful at horn parts which permeate both this record and the last.

LL: Who are the other musicians you work with?

DTW: The Ben Racine Band is Nicky Estor on drums, François Dubé on bass, Moose Mousseau on
baritone sax, and Kaven Jalbert on tenor, add to that John Sadowy on keys and trumpeter Nic Boulay
and you have one of the best bands in the country (in my opinion!)

LL: Have you been back to Manchester? Do you still have family in the UK?

DTW: Yes ...I have some
aunts, uncles, and cousins
still in England, and yes, I
do visit once a year or so.

I will be going back this
fall for a cousin’s wedding.
Love England!

LL: So far 2020 is a very
exciting year for you!

What is coming up that we
can look forward to?

DTW: Well besides the
Junos and the Blues Music
Awards in Memphis,

hopefully, more of the
same! More travelling,
more playing and more
countries to meet and play
for more fans! This past
year, I played Brazil,

Mexico, Saudi Arabia, Sweden, Haiti, & France, not to
mention the US and Canada. I always say it — I love my
job!
