GA-20 is a Boston-based blues trio that has been turning heads and winning hearts with their raw, unfiltered approach to traditional American blues. Formed by guitarists Matt Stubbs and Pat Faherty, alongside drummer Tim Carman, the band channels the spirit of the genre's earliest pioneers — think Muddy Waters, Howlin' Wolf, and Junior Wells — while giving it a fresh, vital energy that feels anything but nostalgic.
What sets GA-20 apart is their fierce commitment to authenticity. Recording on vintage equipment and drawing from deep roots in pre-1960s blues, they craft a sound that is gritty, soulful, and impossibly alive. Their music isn't a museum piece — it's a living, breathing force that hits you in the chest and dares you to stand still.
With critically acclaimed albums and electrifying live performances, GA-20 has built a devoted following among blues purists and rock fans alike. Whether they're tearing through an original composition or reimagining a forgotten classic, they bring an urgency and passion that reminds the world why the blues has never truly gone out of style.
