Hailing from Winnipeg, a city that has produced more than its share of great musicians, Big Dave’s Pocket Full Of Nothin’ is his most ambitious album yet. Until now, Big Dave’s recordings have largely comprised of songs written by musical heroes such as Robert Johnson, Muddy Waters, and Elmore James. But for his seventh album and third record in a row with the award winning guitarist Steve Dawson producing, he decided to try something a little different. ‘I don’t usually stand on my own material. I’ve been happy to record my arrangements of other people’s songs, you know trying to bring something of a new perspective to them. Steve asked if I had written anything new since we last got together, so I sent him a bunch of songs and much to my surprise, he really liked almost all of them, so we ended up with nine original tunes on this record, which is the most I’ve ever recorded at one time.’
