In Chicago, a city overflowing with unrivaled blues talent, world-renowned Lil’ Ed & The Blues Imperials have been standing tall for almost 30 years. The band’s big sound, fueled by Lil’ Ed’s gloriously rollicking slide work and deep blues string bending, along with his rough-edged, soulful vocals, is as real and hard-hitting as Chicago blues gets.
In The Press of Atlantic City, before Lil’Ed & The Blues Imperials show, on October 14, at the Lizzie Rose Music Room, in Tuckerton, New Jersey, on October 14.
