Today’s guests Eric Lieberman and Alicia Aragon lead Blue Largo, a band on a mission to bring love and harmony back into our world. On the band’s new album “Got To Believe,” founder/guitarist Eric Lieberman wrote the song “A World Without Soul,” as his personal lament that the arts—especially music—has taken a distant second place to consumerism and the latest technology.
Blue Largo formed in 2000, began playing 1940s and ‘50s blues covers by Billie Holiday, Dinah Washington, Louis Jordan and T Bone Walker. Eric was a renowned blues guitar player on the Southern California blues scene, which is when he first met Alicia Aragon at San Diego’s Mandolin Wind. He performed there every weekend, while she waitressed. She loved to sing and had a great voice, but never desired to perform professionally until 1999 when she said “yes!” to starting a band with Eric. In 2006 Eric was diagnosed with a neurological condition known as Focal Dystonia. Though the malady severely affected the coordination in his right hand, Eric said “no” to the potential end of his guitar playing. For the past 15 years, he spent five hours a day, following a strict regimen to create new neurotransmitters with activities that included learning brail and formal piano lessons, which has helped him to be 95% better, playing close to his peak years, especially when using a thumb pick as opposed to a flat pick.
GOT TO BELIEVE has ten original songs, plus a cover of Nina Simone’s “Don’t Let Me Be Misunderstood.” Grab your copy of “Got to Believe” or find out more here: https://www.bluelargoblues.com/
