Jim Byrnes Journeys Everywhere West on

New Blues and Roots CD Coming November 16

 from Black Hen Music

VANCOUVER, BC – Black Hen Music announces a November 16 release date for Everywhere West, the new CD from multi Juno Award-winning blues and roots musician Jim Byrnes, distributed nationally by Burnside Distribution. 

Everywhere West is the fourth collaboration between Byrnes and Black Hen Music label president, musician and producer Steve Dawson, and showcases Jim’s bluesiest sound in many years. The follow-up to his 2008 critically-acclaimed release, My Walking Stick, Everywhere West includes raw and stripped-down takes on classic songs, as well as originals penned by Jim, himself. It’s the kind of music that Jim Byrnes grew up hearing in his adolescence. Owner of a dual citizenship, Jim Byrnes has been based in Vancouver for many years, but was originally born and raised in St. Louis and grew up surrounded by music on the north side of the city.
