Insurrection Blues, Harris' 20th album overall and first for M.C. Records, continues a blues journey that began with his debut album Between Midnight and Day in 1995. The songs are full of topical relevance, yet steeped in tradition and informed by his musical explorations over the decades. Recorded in Italy under shutdown conditions, the album returns to the solo acoustic format that's been his base since his early days as a street singer in New Orleans.
When it comes to nimbly picked acoustic blues, Harris is among the elite practitioners of this time-honored style. As an artist, he continues to intrigue - OffBeat Magazine "Insurrection Blues," stands tall as his forceful response to the Washington D.C. mayhem of early 2021. - Downbeat Magazine Overall, Insurrection Blues provides a study in craft and cohesion, delivered by an artist who possesses both the agility and determination to ensure that it's so - The Alternate Root

Press Quotes
He's a great solo acoustic act, a gutbucket guitar player with a real earthy and authentic sound...
—Tom Henry, The Toledo Blade
This is just a cat in the spotlight by himself that knows what to do with it. Real blues right from the heart---beating strongly!
—Chris Spector, Midwest Record
Harris weaves gospel, Delta blues, and the roots of these forms in an acoustic tour de force worthy of the MacArthur Fellowship and honorary music doctorate from his alma mater, Bates College in Maine.
