Winter by Andres Roots
"Roots’ new album, Winter, is an excellent introduction to his music. With 13 self-penned, primarily acoustic, blues songs, he lays the emphasis solidly on the song rather than using the song as a vehicle for his undoubted six-string virtuosity." - Rhys Williams, Blues Blast Magazine, USA.
Guest appearances by Richard Townend (UK), Bert Deivert (US/Sweden), Howard Fishman (USA), Mikk Tammepõld (Estonia), Ismo Haavisto (Finland), James Dalton (USA), Steve Lury (UK), Lorete Medne (Latvia), Louie Digman (UK/Estonia), and many others.

Estonian slide guitarist and songwriter. A longtime bandleader turned acoustic solo performer, touring internationally - and according to FabricationsHQ critic Ross Muir, “you could be forgiven for thinking your ears or eyes deceive you, given it sounds like either there are two musicians/guitars involved, or he has six fingers on each hand.”
