Blues guitarist Duke Robillard started experimenting with jazz, swing and blues music in high school. In 1967, he formed Roomful of Blues, a band that he led for more than a decade...Robillard's magic touch helped to renew interest in jump blues back in the mid 80s thus fueling the jive 'n' wail bug everyone else caught a decade later. He has recorded with artists such as Jimmy Witherspoon, Snooky Prior, Jay McShann, Hal Singer, Pinetop Perkins and Bob Dylan. – K.F.
Tickets are $20 at door.
