Mid Week Blues

I write about the blues in the washington D.C. area and farther out as well. The area has been a blues Mecca recently with shows by B.B. King, Joe Bonamassa, Bobby "Blue" Bland ad more. This week is no exception Buddy Guy was honored at the Kennedy Center on Sunday. You can read my preview on that along with David Letterman, Led Zeppelin and more here.

However, the bllues continues with the great Robert Cray performing tonight at the Birchmere in Alexandria, Virginia. You can read my preview article here. He has played with greats like John Lee Hooker and Eric Clapton. Here are some videos to help refresh your memory...

Don't Be Afraid of the Dark...

Here he is with Clapton...

Daryl Davis is opening...

The blues don't stop there. On Wednesday night Devon Allman performs at the State Theatre in Falls Church. You can read my preview here. He has great a sound I have seen him twice with Honeytribe once at the Wanee Festivsal and once at the Western Maryland Blues Fest. This will be a bit different since he will be promoting a solo album.

Here he does one of his Dad's songs...

Check out the album teaser on the preview article for more fun. I'll be back soon with a new post.
