Miss Bix & The Blues Fix – We Don’t Own The Blues CD re-release 2020.
Miss Bix is Leslie Bixler and she has already had a varied career. After issuing a debut record in the smooth jazz world (under her maiden name Leslie Letven) she and husband Bill Bixler moved to LA and recorded another album which they sold at gigs. When they started a family Leslie became interested in creating children’s music and her songs attracted the interest of Dick Van Dyke and Chad Smith, drummer of the Red Hot Chili Peppers, whose child was in the same school class. Two albums of children’s music followed and Leslie toured with Dick and Chad to promote them. After her son grew up Leslie looked to make a new musical start and spent several months in Clarksdale where she soaked up the blues heritage of the area, this album being the result.
Leslie worked closely with Ralph Carter whose CV includes a stint with Sugaray Rayford. Ralph co-produced, recorded and engineered the album, as well as playing bass, guitar, keys and drums. Leslie handles all the vocals with Ralph adding some background vocals. Other musicians featured include Gary Mallaber (Steve Miller) on drums (Chad Smith plays on one track), John ‘JT’ Thomas (Bruce Hornsby) on keys, Brian Calway and RJ Mischo on harp and Franck Goldwasser (Mannish Boys) on guitar. Leslie wrote all the material, Ralph contributing to two songs.
Leslie Letven Bixler has been creating music for her entire adulthood, including smooth jazz, rock, and pop … More recent explorations into the depths of the blues have sparked an intense, passion-driven musical trajectory. „The atmosphere that permeates throughout this album is one of treacle thick closeness and mysticism, whether it is about love, obsession, possession, or retribution, it haunts you and invites you in.” – Blues In The South
