Former Crash Test Dummies guitarist/mandolin player Benjamin Darvill is Son of Dave. He brings the Blues kicking and howling into the 21st Century without thievery or pretension, creating sweet Devil music with just his bare lips and hands. It starts with a beat box amplified by an old Astatic microphone, the harmonica follows and with a stomp of the foot a husky loop is captured. As the loop grinds away his vocal starts low and almost spoken whilst the harmonica sings and a groaning bass-line drops.
