🎶 ‘Begging For Change’ isn’t just a blues song—it’s a message, a moment, and a movement.
— Billy Branch

🔥 NEW MUSIC ALERT! 🔥 https://bbranch.lnk.to/BeggingForChange

Chicago blues legend Billy Branch is back with a powerful new single, “Begging For Change”—produced by the incomparable Larry Batiste and featuring powerhouse performances from Shemekia Copeland and Ronnie Baker Brooks! This track is more than just music: it’s a soul-stirring fusion of classic Chicago blues and urgent, modern-day themes. The title says it all, delivering both a literal plea and a call for transformation and resilience.

“Begging For Change” channels the spirit of reflection and hope that defines the blues. Every note echoes the struggles, resilience, and social realities at the heart of the genre.

This release is historic—it’s the very first official track from Rosa’s Lounge Records, the new label born from the legendary Chicago venue where Billy Branch and The Sons of Blues first took the stage in 1984. The legacy comes full circle, uniting artist and venue in a moment that’s as heartfelt as it is hard-hitting.

🎶 ‘Begging For Change’ isn’t just a blues song—it’s a message, a moment, and a movement.

— Larry Batiste
