THE EVOLUTION OF THE BLUES NEA
/ NAC
American Masterpiece Grant Award Recipient
*
From its earliest roots to contemporary musical fusion, the Blues is the
common thread in American music. Drawing from a vast repertoire of music
played on a variety of traditional instruments, Colin puts on an
unforgettable show.
The show traces the history of the blues
through an astonishing variety of styles. Whether it is energetic old time
stride and boogie, the harmonic complexity of Billy Strayhorn and Duke
Ellington, the gentle roll of Mississippi John Hurt, or the driving sting
of Muddy Waters, the music is played with uncompromising technique,
integrity, and soul.
With such an extensive song list, no two shows are ever the same.
