 Thursday August 26, 2010  Bryan Lee and the Blues Power Band, The Bruce Club Seven 50

He's back for the 3d summer in a row! New Orlean's blues master, mentor to Kenny Wayne Shepherd, Bryan Lee loves playing at The Bruce! This is the authentic Braille Blues Daddy, an institution in New Orleans and festival favourite across North America and Europe. For more than a quarter-century, Bryan Lee is one of the most recognizable blues players to call New Orleans home. He's preparing to play his 26th JazzFest and readying his thirteenth album and while he may not see his name in lights the way that other artists might, he's become one of the most beloved artists to have come out of southern Louisiana. As widely travelled as Bryan and his band are, they love to come to The Bruce and we're proud to be presenting them for the third year in a row!

All Tickets $10.00 @ The Bruce!
