"The sound of Chicago blues is undeniable when Gerry Hundt picks up an instrument, whether it's guitar, mandolin, harmonica, or drums.  Originally from Rockford, IL, Gerry began his career in Colorado on harmonica with the late John-Alex Mason, and was later featured on John-Alex Mason's final album alongside Cedric Burnside, Lightnin' Malcolm, and Lionel Young.  After coming home to Illinois, Gerry played festivals and venues across the US and Europe during a five-year stint with Nick Moss and The Flip-Tops. During this time, Nick and Kate founded Blue Bella Records, with Gerry as engineer for a dozen releases, including his own blues mandolin album, Since Way Back, in 2007.  Blues Music Award nominations followed suit, as well as features at Montreal Jazz Festival and Blues Station in Tournon, France.  Starting in 2013, Gerry served as manager, guitarist, and songwriter for The Corey Dennison Band, which produced highly-regarded two albums for Delmark Records, garnering Le Prix du Blues from l'Academie du Jazz in 2016, as well as BMA nominations.  Post-2020 saw the creation of The Dig 3, a collaboration that featured Gerry's one-man-band augmented by Andrew Duncanson and Ronnie Shellist for two critically-acclaimed albums, landing #3 in MOJO Magazine's Top Ten for 2023, no small feat for an independent release.  One More for Me, recorded in Luxembourg with drummer Tom Lehnert and bassist/harmonicist Renaud Lesire, represents Gerry's emergence as an important voice in the contemporary blues scene.  By turns powerful, exuberant, and subtle, this album marks his most personal statement to date and is a celebration of the city he calls home."
