Charles Burton Band (USA/DK)

Kl. 22.00 / entré 90,-

En fed guitarist med en dejlig stemme og som virkelig kan sit kram.
Charles Burton er fra San Diego, og som en af de få spiller han den blues som oprindeligt kommer derfra - nemlig West Coast Blues. Han er en enestående guitarist og en rigtig god sanger som kombinerer det fine med det rå så det altid giver en god kontrast til det enkelte nummer.

"I love playing at Mojos! It's like coming home. It's my favorite place to play in Europe!"
The Charles Burton Blues Band pushes the Blues envelope. But whether they're rocking it, swinging it, jazzing it up, adding Latin spice or country twang, deep blues feeling permeates this high-energy trio.

On drums is Asmus Jensen, who came up in the Austin blues scene and toured with Omar and the Howlers for many years. Bass player Kris Bodzon has played with many top recording and touring acts. When they get together it's an Americana roots extravaganza not to be missed!

Several of this bands CDs have been nominated for SDMA best blues albums. Charles won the International Blues Challenge regional finals as a solo performer and represented San Diego at the 2009 IBC in Memphis, the same year he won the San Diego Guitar Center "King of the Blues" regional final.

Charles has been a featured performer with the Deacons, King Biscuit Revue, Michele Lundeen, and the Bayou Brothers. He has also toured England with Blues legend Lazy Lester, headlined the Fresno Blues Festival with Hosea Levy, and served as musical director for Bernard Purdie's 2012 San Diego showcase.
