Sugarcane Collins – Way Down The River
{2006}

Not only does Andy ‘Sugarcane’ Collins third CD take us way down the river, but it also crosses oceans. Australian Sugarcane brings us a heapin’ helpin’ of southern U.S. Delta blues from down-under.

We know what river he is talkin’ about but there is a twist, Hailing from Down Under, (Yes, That Down Under - Blokes) Andy “Sugarcane” Collins hits a great chord on "Way Down the River," his collection of 13 blues-based compositions. Sugarcane gives us practiced and soulful finger picking ability, some nifty slide guitar, and a strong southern influenced voice. This CD is a cool mix of classic blues, and you would not guess he is not from the delta, THE delta that is.

Acoustic guitar, washboard, electric bass, electric guitar, drums, congas, organ, drums, harmonica and jew’s harp.
