Bleu Edmondson

With The Future Ain't What It Used To Be, Bleu Edmondson?s long-awaited follow-up to 2007?s critically acclaimed Lost Boy, the southern-fried country rocker embarked on a search for truth, stripping back layers of regret, loss, and longing to uncover a renewed, albeit somewhat painfully soul-baring, view of himself and the world around him. He dug deeper into what the music meant to him as a musician, a writer and a man. "Writing is like holding up a mirror to those darkest corners of our lives that we keep hidden," confides the raspy-throated singer. "It?s not always a pretty reflection, but it?s real and it matters." The collection of songs ministers to the saint and the sinner in each of us. It is an amalgamation of those touch points and influences that give us permission to question, confront and raise a little hell on Saturday night.
