Saturday Matinee – Alastair Greene, Eric Johanson & Katarina Pejak; Nikki Hill Band, Anthony Rosano & The Conqueroos, and Cam Cole

Ruf’s Blues Caravan 2024 featured Alastair Greene, Eric Johanson & Katarina Pejak

Nikki Hill Band:
“If Tina Turner and Little Richard had a daughter and raised her with the help of uncles James Brown and Chuck Berry, she’d be like Nikki Hill.”
— Minneapolis Star Tribune

Anthony Rosano & The Conqueroos mixes Delta blues, NOLA  second line funk and 60’s jams with classic rock. No self-indulgent wheedly-wheedly solos with these guys.

Cam Cole, busker, bluesman, rocker, recording artist, and the most impressive one-man band you will ever see.

Looks like the west coast is in for rain, the midwest is in for winter, and the porch has a roof with a live weather watch. See you tomorrow, rain, mud, sleet or snow.

Saturday Matinee – Fiona Boyes, The Stacy Mitchhart Band, and Anthony Rosano & The Conqueroos

Aussie Fiona Boyes grew up near the backwater bayous of the Melbourne Delta and it shows. She plays a variety of styles, all anchored to the blues. Legendary pianist Pinetop Perkins described her as “the best gal guitarist I heard since Memphis Minnie.”

The Stacy Mitchhart Band covered Johnny Winter‘s Tbe Monkey Song at the Bourbon Street Blues and Boogie Bar in Nashville (2018).

Anthony Rosano & The Conqueroos mixes Delta blues, NOLA  second line funk and 60’s jams with classic rock. No self-indulgent wheedly-wheedly solos here.

I must have overslept for a few days because this week just flew by. See you back here a week before next Sunday.
