Oct 25    Charlie Musselwhite in Concert
Charlie Musselwhite doesn't just top the competition, he towers above it! Mississippi born Musselwhite is one of the most revered blues harmonica players in the world. He is also a respected singer and songwriter in his own right and has won countless awards during his legendary career including a 2014 Grammy® for Best Blues Album (with Ben Harper), 27 Blues Music Awards, induction into the Blues Hall of Fame in 2010 and multiple Grammy?nominations. His collaborations include musical giants like Howlin Wolf, Muddy Waters, Big Joe Williams, Little Walter, Sonny Boy Williamson, Tom Waits, Eddie Vedder, and John Lee Hooker. You'll hear echoes of Jimi Hendrix, the Blind Boys of Alabama and even the laidback groove of Jack Johnson here, but make no mistake: this is the blues! About his music, Charlie states "The blues sounded like how I felt growing up. Too many people think of the blues as sad, but I think many of these tunes will immediately dispel that notion, as they are fun, dancing tunes that lift your spirits."
