JOHN
PRIMER |
|
OCTOBER 6TH 2010 -
10 PM
As a
young musician, John Primer drew his first influences from his family's
involvement with spiritual and gospel music. This early exposure, aided by
the the sounds of
Jimmy
Reed, Muddy Waters, Little Milton, Elmore James, B.B. & Albert King, led
to a fascination with the blues. True to the form of many bluesmen before
him, Primer left Mississippi for Chicago where he played along side Sammy
Lawhorn, Junior Wells, Buddy Guy, Smokey Smothers, Lonnie Brooks. His career did not have anywhere to go but up and he was taken on as an
opening act for Muddy Waters. After Muddy's passing in 1983, Primer
joined and toured with Magic Slim and the Teardrops until 1995 when he
released his debut album The Real Deal. Ever since, this Grammy and W.C.
Handy award nominee has been tearing up the world as front man of The Real
Deal Blues Band!
