Former guitarist with the Fabulous Thunderbirds, and award-winning American blues guitarist Kirk Fletcher is to release his sixth album 'My Blues Pathway' via Cleopatra Records. The 10 tracks will be released on CD, vinyl and digital on Friday 25th September 2020. The album is available to pre-order from https://amzn.to/3hrTMVX.

'My Blues Pathway' follows hot on the heels of Kirk’s 2018 Blues music award nominated album 'Hold On' and features a mix of originals, covers and two co-writes with Robert Cray’s longtime bass player Richard Cousins, with all music arrangements by Kirk Fletcher.

Kirk took some time out to talk to MNPR's Dan Reid about the new album, his influences, coping with lockdown, and finally getting back to gigging after several months of downtime.
