Contemporary Blues for a modern world. Grounded in the past, rooted in the present and looking to the future.
Russ Green, producer, singer, songwriter and harmonica player is steeped in the past, living in the present and looking towards the future. Predominantly based in blues he has also made the not so surprising foray in to rock. And just as exciting is his having been involved in creating and performing a blues-hip hop fusion.
Russ has played and toured extensively across the U.S., Canada, South America and Europe. Both fronting bands and also alongside living legends John Primer and Lurrie Bell both of whom have direct links to the old masters of the blues. Russ also produced a CD for SiriusXM satellite radio personality on B.B. King’s Bluesville, Big Llou Johnson. That CD won a Blues Music Award for Best New Artist in 2013. Russ Green’s CD titled City Soul was selected as one of DownBeat Magazine’s Best of 2018. City Soul was also selected as one of Living Blues Magazine’s Best of the Decade.
All of these experiences have made Russ Green something unique. A voice like no other, songwriting that pushes the envelope of what is the norm and harmonica playing that goes beyond the boundaries and with hints of Hendrix. If life experience makes the man, then this man is made! An arresting storyteller, certainly authentic and certainly a modern take on a classic vibe.
Dinner and cocktails starting at 5:30 pm. Showtime is 7:00 pm. Reservations highly recommended.
