I do not have diabetes
I work with the Aynsley Lister Band – a very popular blues rock band that tour extensively throughout the UK and Europe. In March 2009, Aynsley released an album with a song called ‘Sugar Low’ which was written about his food cravings and the effects that follow due to his sugar levels. Since it’s release it has been a staple song in Aynsley’s live set and after the concerts, we’re asked frequently by people who either have the condition or know someone who does whether the song is written about diabetes. Recently, a fan with a diabetic daughter approached us to thank us for helping her come to terms with the condition. He said, as a teenage girl, she saw Aynsley as a role model and it helped her to accept the position she is in. Aynsley’s own father is diabetic so it’s very personal issue for him and since Aynsley’s music is not known to all, I thought I’d alert you to it’s existence...

Shame I couldnt hear the lyrics so I will have to take your word that he was singing about diabetes but he has some cool blues moves there.
 
They're very good. I only know of a few "youngsters" who can do the old time 60s blues guitar today; it's mostly rap I hear. I hope they enjoy what they're doing.
 
What a great Band and a great sound........an 'old blueshound' like me can listen to that all day long.

Thanks for that Dan......... :D
 
Struggled to hear the lyrics but enjoyed the guitar intro! :D

Great guy Aynsley... have seen him live a few times... always worth a visit if he is in your town. One of the most under-rated guitarists around IMHO. 8)
