COREY
HARRIS |
June 19th 2013 - 10 PM
|
No
one knows Delta blues the way Corey Harris knows Delta blues. With
an ethnomusicological approach to his craft, this Denver native
fits a world's worth of blues' influences into his varied
performances. Whether playing acoustic or electric, "Harris
brings out the many flavors and moods of blues music; happy and
sad, fast and slow, and everything in between in all of his
playing." (OffBeat)

BABY
GRAMPS
|
|
FRIDAY,
JUNE 21ST, 2013 - 7:00 PM
"Sounding
like a Tuvan throat-singing monk on LSD, Baby Gramps chants with the
intensity of a Captain Ahab." (Pop Matters) Baby Gramps has
been performing and based out of the Northwest for almost 40 years. With
a collection of traditional blues, Dylan covers, children's songs, and
his own compositions, this ageless performer is described by Patrick
Ferris as having "a mass appeal in the sense that any audience
between the age of 2 and 102 are captivated by his vaudeville antics,
hilarious lyrics and animated guitar playing."

masquerading as a "bluesman", no "Hendrix wanna be"
- he is simply true to his ... heart and the rockin' soul in his
music." Michael Powers is a rare find in the music world; "an
impressive musical range and versatility - a musician for all
seasons." (Blues Matters)
