Killer all-star blues spectacular.
Every year blues bass master Ruth Davies brings down the SJW house with her sensational Blues Night, always showcasing current masters of the art. Ruth has been bewitching blues fans for years touring with the crème de la soulful crème: John Lee Hooker, Charles Brown, Jimmy Witherspoon, Elvin Bishop, and more. And she’s no slouch in the pop and jazz world either, with albums for Bonnie Raitt, Van Morrison, and Toots Thielemans under her belt. Our Blues Night featured guest this year is knockout vocalist and musician, Barbara Morrison. The superlative Ms. Morrison has bedazzled audiences all over the world with Dizzy Gillespie, Ray Charles, Etta James, Esther Phillips, and Jimmy Smith. Whether she’s getting down with Keb’ Mo’ or swinging with the Count Basie Orchestra, Barbara enraptures her crowds with a unique blend of blues, gospel, jazz, and pop vocal styles; she’s the real deal.
