Yes More Blues by JT+Agnostics is an album that humorously and poignantly delves into the intricacies of life, love, and personal struggle. Set against the backdrop of modern Aotearoa New Zealand, it combines a light-hearted yet reflective tone, offering a unique and engaging musical experience. The songs delve into themes such as unrequited love, the search for meaning, the allure of fame, societal chaos, and the enduring power of the blues to cope with life’s challenges. The songs are self-recorded and produced by Maciek Hrybowicz and co-written by him and John Thomson. They are performed by musicians who live in the Waikato area of Aotearoa.
