Hot Toddy / Isaac & Blewett's Live at the Black Box is the perfect embodiment of this; two East Coast mainstays coming together to push the borders of their collective sound while keeping themselves rooted in tradition.

Individually, the bands are figureheads of their respective scenes. Hot Toddy, made up of Thom Swift, Joel LeBlanc, and Tom Easley, have released five award winning roots/blues albums out of New Brunswick. Renowned for their artistry and musicianship, the band has thrived on developing their craft through exploring new approaches to creation and delivery.

Tim Isaac and Jim Blewett have long operated with a similar state of mind. Also from New Brunswick, Isaac and Blewett have released two albums that have highlighted their stylistic development over the past nine years. Intent on pushing their instruments to their sonic limits, the duo has progressed from being a blues act to skewing the lines of any genre classification.
