The Blues: John Hammond & John Mayall
February 16 & 17
The Allen Room
John Hammond has been a blues fixture for decades and recently joined hallowed
company as an inductee into the Blues Hall of Fame in 2011. The soulful GRAMMY®-winner
is the consummate triple threat musician (on vocals, guitar, and harmonica) whose
roots-driven blues has influenced countless musicians, from Jimi Hendrix to Bob
Dylan. Literally and figuratively Sir John Mayall is British blues royalty
who hired among others Eric Clapton, Jack Bruce, and Mick Fleetwood back in the
1960s. At 78, he is an ageless wonder who plays with the same intensity today as
he did when he first blazed a blues path around the world. Hammond will perform
solo, and Mayall will perform with his band in this double bill. Pre-show music
in the Atrium provided by Bryan Carter, Friday February 17 only.
