Youri Blow, (born March 6, 1981 in Troyes) is a French guitarist and singer-songwriter. Founder of Psychéblues, a surprising and explosive marriage of Delta Blues (Son House ...), the Psychedelic Rock (Jimi Hendrix ...) and traditional music (Perou, Mongolia ...).
His first album "Moon Rock My Soul", opening for Elliot Murphy, Boubacar Traoré, Joe Bonamassa, Björn Berge, Alela Diane...
Various press and chronicles of the second album "The Corridor" in magazines (Les Inrocks, Soul Bag, Bluesmag, Tradmag, l’Express…) led him to perform in Blues / World Music concerts and festivals (Tour in France - March/April, in Belgium – Oct/November 2010, Festival Les Nuits de l’Alligator with C.W Stoneking…)
This album was enriched with an initiatory trip to Mongolia living with the Tsaatane tribe.
