CHRIS CAIN COMING TO THE SIDE BAR

"Cain formed his first band in 1986, and, in the hopes of getting more gigs, released his first album, Late Night City Blues, on the locally-based Blue Rock’It label. Almost immediately, everything changed. Booking agents came calling and Chris began touring Europe before he knew what hit him. The album received four W.C. Handy Award nominations (now the Blues Music Awards) and the offers to perform kept rolling in. He even opened for his heroes Albert King and Albert Collins, who both asked Chris to jam on stage. The more Cain toured and recorded, the greater his reputation grew. Four more albums on Blue Rock’It  and three for Blind Pig Records kept Cain busy on the road for the better part of every year. AllMusic said Cain delivers “slow-burning, contemporary blues that positively swings...a tour-de-force. Licks are clean, warm and fluid. He seamlessly bounces between R&B, funk, jazz, jump blues and Chicago blues...refreshing and diverse.”

 

Renowned blues guitarist Chris Cain is coming to The Side Bar (The Bar on Market) on April 12th with special guest, Gabe Stillman!  Doors open at 6:30 pm and music starts at 7:00 pm.  Tickets are $25 in advance and $30 at the door.
