Albert Cummings Shares New Video “Two Hands”
2022 North American Tour
Resumes July 13 in Lake George, NY

Albert Cummings shares his new music video “Two Hands” another standout track from the new album TEN. The rollicking, rocker drives the message home that hard work pays off.

“It didn’t take me long to realize that hard work will always pay off.
And the best things in this life I love are things that can’t be bought.”
– Albert Cummings

Albert Cummings hits his stride with expressive vocals and mighty fine guitar riffs on “Two Hands” off his album TEN. Produced by Grammy Award-winner Chuck Ainlay, TEN was recorded in Nashville at Peter Frampton’s Phenix Studios, and presents an expansive sound venturing into rock, country, soul, blues, and Americana, while Cummings’ songs range from wall-ratting tunes to soft ballads, with his rugged, world-wise vocals hitting all the right moods. With thirteen original songs, TEN spotlights Cummings’ musical diversity and strong songwriting. The album features a guest appearance by Country superstar Vince Gill on the track “Last Call.”

PRAISE FOR TEN

“The album features 13 musically diverse tracks with Cummings at home with the countryside of blues. With Ten, it’s not so much the blending of genres that speaks the loudest, but it’s the songs themselves…well-crafted with compelling melodies and a focus on storytelling.” – Rockandbluesmuse.com

“Blues fans will find a lot to like with this one. And don’t be surprised if a couple of tunes cross over to the country market, too. They rock!”- Blues Blast Magazine

“With over two decades’ worth of solo releases under his belt, his recorded body of work catalogs a guitarist that has gone from strength to strength. Renowned for his raw, off-the-cuff stage performances, what you see really is what you get with this maestro.” – Guitar Player Magazine
