A performance by modern blues maestro Eric Bibb is an enriching experience. His music, like his personality, is intimate, assured, and passionate, drawing listeners into the moment not only as spectators, but participants as well.
Eric Bibb has been praised for not only having a great voice, but his peers, including Blues and Roots icon Taj Mahal, rave about his performances and his extraordinary knowledge about the origin and history of his music. He will be performing favorites from his hit albums including the most recent, Booker's Guitar, which perfectly blends folk, blues, and gospel, and is hailed for being inspired and intimate.
Special guests include the Valley's own local blues icon Bob Corritore and his newest collaborative partner, Dave Riley. Known as one of the best blues harmonica players around, Corritore is also owner of the famous Phoenix Blues and Roots concert club, The Rhythm Room. Like Bibb, the duo has been recognized for playing raw blues pure from the heart of Chicago and the South. Their partnership has created two well-received albums.
