Fri 11/7
The Blasters and Ronnie Baker Brooks
What a night this will be! 2 great shows.
The Blasters stink of rockabilly. They project the essence of small streets
of post-war neighborhoods, car culture and the sun-bleached concrete of Downey,
California. They are lead by Phil Alvin's soulful bellowing about causing chaos,
chasing women and the loss of the citrus groves. Influenced by the likes of
The Rolling Stones, Elvis Presley, Buddy Holly, and many others who came
and went during the 1950's, The Blasters play the songs of the working man's
curse and rock and roll romance. Founding members Phil Alvin and John Bazz,
with the addition of Keith Wyatt on lead guitar and Jerry Angel on drums,
are carrying on their hard-won legacy of one of the most credible and
recognizable bands in Americana music.
Ronnie Baker Brooks I grew up among the best of the best," Brooks says.
"Every time I play, I feel like I've got to do it with the authenticity and passion that I saw in guys like Buddy Guy, Muddy Waters, B.B. King and my father.
But I also have to put my twist on it. None of those guys repeated what came before them."
