After almost two decades since their last release, South Carolina band the Blue Dogs are back with the release of a brand new full-length album, Big Dreamers. Produced by accomplished guitarist and longtime Blue Dogs fan—and at times, guitar player—Sadler Vaden, Big Dreamers marks a long-awaited comeback for the band and an full-circle moment for their producer.
“I have a history with these guys,” Vaden said. “They used to hire me when I was 18 or 19 years old to play with them.”
Vaden isn't the only fan of Blue Dogs contributing to Big Dreamers, legendary Texas songwriter Radney Foster sings background vocals on “That's How I Knew,” which he co-wrote with Bobby Houck along with “If Ever,” and dobro master Jerry Douglas joined the boys on the bluegrass-inspired “The Road You Don't.”
