NO DEPRESSION MAGAZINE – John Nemeth’s Freaky Soul His homestate grows more taters than bluesmen. But Idahoan singer/harpist John Nemeth raises a crop usually found in the deep South. Nemeth came by his soulful blues style in a roundabout way, force-fed Brahms,Lizst, Mozart, Chopin, and Beethoven by his Hungarian dad. “Through osmosis you learn a lot about melody from all those cats,” he says. While fellow Idahoans were groovin’ on Garth Brooks and Nirvana, Nemeth got into blues and never looked back. READ MORE

ROOTS MUSIC REPORT: FEELIN’ FREAKY ✯✯✯✯ 4 STARS “Soul/blues singer and harmonica ace John Nemeth employs classic Memphis sounds as the means for an original set that takes turns both predictable and unpredictable. The leadoff track, “Under The Gun”, is a tasty slice of regional horn-driven rhythm. The minor-keyed ballad “Rainy Day” sports all the trappings of a classic Willie Mitchell production, down to the strings. Nemeth’s harp finds fresh turf on the dance floor burner that serves as the title track. The lyrically sly “You Really Do Want That Woman” and “Kool Aid Pickle” should garner attention as well.”

ELMORE MAGAZINE VIDEO PREMIERE: “Today, Elmore is premiering the video for the album’s title track, “Feelin’ Freaky.” The video features the guys rocking out to the funky tune, colored with a hazy filter that gives the shoot a vintage vibe. “Feelin’ Freaky” rushes out of the gate with a pulsing guitar hook. “Forget the rules… set your freaky free,” Németh beckons in his soulful tenor, launching into one of his legendary harmonica solos. The camera glides and jumps around the eclectic garage to show Németh bumping and grinding and high kicking as his guitar players rock along. It’s no doubt that Németh and the Blue Dreamers’ live shows must be one wild—and freaky—affair, indeed.” READ MORE
