TONIGHT at Lee’s Liquor Lounge in Minneapolis! Our First Annual Chess Records Tribute. This year we’re celebrating the 100th birthdays in 2015 of Muddy Waters and Willie Dixon!
For five years we’ve hosted an annual Howlin’ Wolf tribute beginning with his 100th birthday. We felt that Muddy Waters’ and Willie Dixon’ 100th birthdays made for a great occasion to bring the rest of Chess Records into the fold. Come on out to Lee’s Liquor Lounge and see local blues and rock & roll artists perform songs from our Chess heroes, headlined by the one-and-only Big George Jackson!
Music starts at 9, $5 at the the door. Donations will be accepted for the Minnesota Blues Society who work hard to promote the blues within Minnesota.
