GA-20 - Orphans

GA-20 — Orphans 

Rare live-show favorites, strays, and out-of-print tracks from the band's stage show

GA-20's album Orphans is an official full-length release from the traditional blues revival trio GA-20. It compiles rare live-show favorites, strays, and out-of-print tracks that the band previously only played on stage.

One of the defining things about GA-20 is their total commitment to playing the songs they genuinely love. As bandleader Matthew Stubbs puts it, "we play the music we would want to hear." That spirit runs right through Orphans, a set that captures the raw, physical energy that has made the band such a force in heavy blues, alongside the deep-cut choices that have kept fans paying attention.

On Orphans, GA-20 pull together a selection of blues and blues-adjacent material that fits that approach perfectly. These are the outliers, the one-offs, the songs that have lived at their live shows, appeared as standalone singles between albums, or simply stuck with the band as personal favorites. Here, those tracks finally get a proper home.
