"You don't sound like anyone else," said Danny Thompson - renowned bass player for Nick Drake and Joe Strummer - about English musician Conil.

The GRAMMY-winning engineer for Tom Waits and Elvis Costello, Tchad Blake said: "Strange Part of the Country is an awesome album! I still listen to it."

Fleetwood Mac legend Peter Green liked Conil's music so much he stopped by Conil’s house to record with him. They recorded a version of Conil's homage to the jazz greats "Round Midnight". 

Strange Part of the Country never conformed to any current trends and has remained timeless. Now, people are discovering this album and it is becoming an all-time favourite. 

When the album was released in the UK, it received some amazing press. Britain's biggest selling music monthly Q magazine gave it: "Four stars - Q Recommends". Blues Matters magazine wrote: "One of the most original artists out there". In the next issue, Blues Matters put him on the front cover.

Conil left London after Strange Part of the Country was released and has spent the last ten years living in the United States and Europe - including New Orleans, New York City, and Berlin.

I'm a "firecamp" musician, meaning I only sing and play instruments for fun and to honor my favorite artists and their songs, although sometimes I write and compose my own... I also have a podcast named "Reminiscencia Podcast", go check it out on Spotify! I play rhythm guitar and keyboards, and I'm currently learning to play the clarinet. I sing in Spanish, English, and Portuguese, which I'm also learning. 🇧🇷 I'm an amateur DAW (Ableton Live+Waveform) user... 🎹 🎙️ 🎸 All the credits go to the great and talented musicians who made all the songs that you will find here possible. 😉 And remember, guys, music sounds better with a good pair of headphones on! 🎧
