2011 found Big Head Todd and the Monsters working with Big Head Blues Club, in celebration of influential bluesman Robert Johnson (who would have celebrated his 100 birthday on May 8, 2011). The “moving and wildly entertaining” (Boston Globe) collaboration featuring Big Head Todd and the Monsters and special guests B.B. King, Hubert Sumlin, recently deceased Honeyboy Edwards, Charlie Musselwhite, Ruthie Foster, Cedric Burnside and Lightnin’ Malcolm, toured earlier this year and released a studio recording of the project, titled 100 Years of Robert Johnson. USA Today hailed frontman Todd Park Mohr as having “muddy Delta dirt under his fingernails.” Recently Mohr has been laying down solo original blues tracks in the studio, and has been logging spontaneous musical rants in a blog series called “The Daily Blues” Check it out here: tpmvault.blogspot.com.
