Macon, GA is a storied music town, home to Little Richard, Otis Redding, the Allman Brothers and dozens more. Angel “Cash” Ocasio, Jr. and his collective, Cash’s Juke Joint, is a worthy addition to Macon’s strong and funky musical lineage.
Ocasio’s debut album is The Road Home (Wild Ivory Records). It includes the single, “Trying to Understand.”
“Ocasio’s instrumental prowess stands out across the 11 tracks on “The Road Home”, but the songs never suffer from overplaying or excessive production. Sure, this record is a guitar junkie’s dream, but Ocasio’s smooth vocalizing and strong songwriting skills never take a back seat to his searing solos.” — Living Blues Magazine
