David Jacobs-Strain has shown that he has been given that special gift for playing Blues. Just as SRV had that gift for Texas Blues, David has that same passion for Delta Blues. His style and music brings the foundation of Blues to the modern times as the gifted ones will do.
"The Blues became part of me when I was nine years old, thousands of miles away (from Mississippi) in the Pacific Northwest. I was drawn by the kind of music that Charley Patton played: the delta blues" - D. Jacobs-Strain, 1999
