Soul-blues singer and harp player Darrell Nulisch will be releasing Just For You, his fifth album for Severn Records, on October 20, 2009. Following his Blues Music Award-nominated 2007 album Goin' Back To Dallas, a stripped-down rootsy collection of Texas blues, Just For You is a return to Nulisch's soulful roots.
Produced by Nulisch along with David Earl and bassist Steve Gomes, Just For You includes contributions from current Fabulous Thunderbirds guitarist Johnny Moeller and a full horn section with arrangements created by the legendary Willie Henderson. Just For You features six original songs penned by Nulisch, along with a handful of inspired cover songs: J.J. Malone’s "It’s a Shame," Slim Harpo’s "Just for You," Otis Clay's "The Woman Don’t Live Here Anymore," and the classic "Work for Love," which was originally recorded in Memphis by Lou Pride, who also adds his guest vocals to the song.
Nulisch is a seasoned blues veteran with better than three decades of performing and recording under his belt. He began singing full-time in 1978, spending seven years with Anson Funderburgh and the Rockets as a founding member of the band and appearing on two albums. Nulisch spent some time performing with fellow Dallas bluesman Mike Morgan and the Crawl, and was lead singer for Ronnie Earl and the Broadcasters for three years and two albums before launching his solo career in 1990.
