Everything that Patrick “Hatrack” Gallagher plays — the feeling and heart of every performance he gives — is shaped and informed by the blues. (He also boasts one of the best nicknames in music.) He learned his craft at the knees of Peg Leg Sam Jackson, Sonny Terry, Hammie Nixon, Furry Lewis, Bukka White, Roosevelt Sykes, Robert Pete Williams and others. He knows how it’s supposed to be done, and he brings it all with him when he plays. The “it” is blues harmonica, blues harp to be precise, and we haven’t heard anyone better since Paul Butterfield was around to pound out Chicago-style blues.
To quote Hatrack from a newspaper interview, “I come to music from the Blues. My taste in Jazz goes to the Blues. Louis Armstrong: he’s my main guy… but you know, Charley Parker, Dizzy Gillespie, Lester Young: these guys were great players. No matter how rich and complicated the lines get, the Blues is still at the heart of it. That’s my thing.”
