With help from friend and mentor Johnny \u201cClyde\u201d Copeland, Parker was connected with internationally acclaimed blues artist Rock Bottom, whom he recorded with and toured with over much of the late 90\u2019s. His mainstay status on the Tampa Bay blues scene was established as \u201cFreightrain\u201d was not only known for his bass playing but also for his soulful lead and powerful backup vocals. Currently Freightrain is back on the local Buffalo music scene,<\/p>\n<p>Special guest is Andreas Stamnes, better known as Little Andrew. In 1996, Andreas Stamnes entered the Norwegian blues scene. Despite his young age, Andreas quickly made a name for himself as a talented singer and guitarist. During the winter of 1999 he was invited to tour all over Florida with Rock Bottom. Andreas returned to Norway seething with inspiration and energy, and formed a group of his own: Little Andrew &#038; The Blue Masters. They won the Union Blues Cup in 2000 and toured all over Norway throughout the millenium.<\/p>\n<pre>Dark Season Blues&#169;2016<\/pre>\n<p>[youtube url=&#8221;giSKS7BBVCY&#8221; width=&#8221;620&#8243; height=&#8221;300&#8243; rel=&#8221;0&#8243; showsearch=&#8221;0&#8243; autoplay=&#8221;1&#8243;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[three_fourth] Robert \u00abFreightrain\u00bb Parker feat.
