“Trent said if people are into Eric Clapton, B.B. King and Stevie Ray Vaughan, "Blues Ain't That Bad" should make them as happy as it makes him. "I've always wanted to put out a record like this," he said. "I've played in rock bands and country bands, (but) my heart has always been in this style of music. We're a very R&B band. That is the music I like."”

“Between our touring schedule and Earl 's schedule, we worked on the project when we had the time." Trent said this is his first album where he has been in charge, but he has played guitar and contributed vocals on a few albums by other bands through the years. He said all the songs on "Blues Ain't That Bad" are originals and he wrote the lyrics and music for the tunes. The Blue Mules have been together for around two years, said Trent , and "play now and then" for fun. He said Saskatoon's Dale Ehman plays bass and Graham Templeman pounds the drums in the group. Tren said the band is hitting the road this fall to tour for the album. He said they would be playing clubs across Western Canada in November "after the Riders win the Grey Cup" including stops in Banff, Red Deer and Edmonton, to name a few. "That is the strategy," he said. "Thebluemules.com is (our) website. We have dates on there and music." The cd is also available on cdbaby.com for purchase and download.”
