Slingshot Professionals is an album by American blues singer and guitarist Kelly Joe Phelps, released in 2003.
Phelps is joined by guitarist Bill Frisell and bassist Keith Lowe on two tracks: "Not So Far to Go" and "Cardboard Box of Batteries," and the rest of the album features bassist Andrew Downing, as well as fiddler Jesse Zubot and guitarist Steve Dawson.
[1] Music critic Mark Allan wrote in his AllMusic review that the album was "well worth a listen".
[2] Uncut wrote, "The transformation from revivalist bluesman to contemporary singer-songwriter, which began on 1999's Shine Eyed Mister Zen, continues apace on his fifth album.
His songs are now mini stories, sans verse-chorus-bridge restraints, populated by seekers of truth and peddlers of dreams.
