November 10 – Brooks Williams | 5:00 pm
A long-overdue return visit from this amazing bluesman, Brooks Williams, who has been described as “a fret monster who has to be seen to be believed.” His musical vision spans continents and genres, blues, jazz, slide, finger-style, with funky chords, walking bass lines and fiery riffs played on acoustic, resonator and even cigar box guitars. Originally from Statesboro Georgia, Williams emerged from the Boston blues scene to develop a devoted following in both the US and in the UK (where he now lives). His recent solo albums showcase his own song writing but he has also collaborated on an album of Don Everly songs.
Bob Westcott will open this show. Bob has been perfecting his elegant finger-style guitar work for well over 30 years, from his early years in Greenwich Village, to time spent in England, Canada and various parts of the United States before settling in eastern Long Island.
