BLUES LEGEND JOE LOUIS WALKER TO PERFORM IN EUROPE AND THE UNITED KINGDOM!
“Clenched-fist blues passion, searing guitar and powerful, soulful vocals.” –The Washington Post
Award-winning guitar slinger, passionate vocalist and gifted songwriter Joe Louis Walker, touring in support of his Alligator Records debut, HELLFIRE, will be touring Europe and the United Kingdom betweenSaturday, August 17 and Saturday, August 24, 2013. The Wall Street Journal celebrates HELLFIRE‘s “appealing immediacy” and says, “Walker’s raspy, powerhouse voice is out front while his stinging guitar cuts through the uncluttered arrangements.” Walker has been releasing groundbreaking music since 1986 and has toured — and continues to tour — worldwide. The Blues Foundation inducted Walker into the 2013 Blues Hall Of Fame on May 8, 2013. He has won four Blues Music Awards and also recorded as a guest with some of the blues world’s best-known artists, including appearances on Grammy-winning records by B.B. King and James Cotton. Walker and his band appeared on TBS’s CONAN to perform the song Ride All Night fromHELLFIRE. The New York Times raves, “Walker is a singer with a Cadillac of a voice. He delivers no-nonsense, gutsy blues. His guitar solos are fast, wiry and incisive, moaning with bluesy despair.” Rolling Stone simply calls him “ferocious.” Concert information is as follows:
