Hello From Las Vegas

Having grown up in Chicago watching some of the legends of the blues perform such as Buddy Guy and Junior Wells, Koko Taylor, Ray Charles, Bo Diddley, B.B. King and countless other insanely talented musicians, I have had the blues engrained in my soul from a very young age. Ever since I moved to Las Vegas years ago I have been constantly seeking out the best blues acts that come through town as well as the best local venues and talent.

In the coming weeks you can look forward to articles, reviews, interviews and live audio and video clips from some of the best musicians and singers that Las Vegas has to offer. I will also be posting a calendar of events for those readers that live in Vegas or are planning to visit this great city. After all, lets face it, sooner or later, EVERYONE comes to Vegas, and there are some incredible lesser known local venues and acts that you won’t see at the casinos but if you are into the blues you do NOT want to miss.

So bookmark this page and be sure and check back every week for schedules of upcoming shows and the latest and greatest clips from some talent that you will not find anywhere else. I look forward to becoming your source for information on the Las Vegas blues scene and all things blues in Las Vegas.
