No Regrets [CD]

Packed with eclectic songs, supercharged guitar and emotional heat, Albert Cummings' sixth album No Regrets kicks open a new creative door for the six-string virtuoso who's so far made his bones in the blues. With the new album, Cummings has delivered a release that poignantly captures the core of his influences, displaying the impact that R&B, Rock, Soul, Country and the Blues have had on both his playing and writing. "This album is really who I am, as an artist and a man," says Cummings. "It's a return to my true musical roots and the first step in really defining my identity as a mature artist. I approached this with one intent, deliver a collection of great songs that I'll be proud to perform for the rest of my life without feeling confined to a specific genre. I am a Blues man, and I will always be one, but inevitably that foundation now reveals a couple of other floors being constructed as the house rises."
