This is going to be a blistering show, so don’t miss it!

Lucky Peterson feat. Tamara Tramell

Lucky Peterson is the most dangerous triple threat working in the blues. He has gained a reputation as one of the most preeminent performers of the modern era. A searing lead guitarist, fantastic organist, and first-rate vocalist, Lucky’s many talents are truly mind-boggling.

Peterson is prime-rich in roots but performs in the present, but that’s just what one would expect from an artist with Peterson’s resumé. His career began when he was just a child. Growing up in Buffalo, NY, Peterson was exposed to music his whole life; his father owned The Governor’s Inn, one of the area’s most renowned blues clubs. Willie Dixon produced Peterson’s first record when he was but five years old, the R&B hit, ‘1-2-3-4.’ This resulted in television appearances for the blues prodigy on such shows as The Tonight Show, The Ed Sullivan Show, and What’s My Line.

As a teenager he attended Buffalo Academy of Performing Arts before touring and recording with such notable artists as: Etta James, Bobby ‘Blue’ Bland, Little Milton, Otis Rush, Kenny Neil and others. You can find him on many of their albums and he was also a favourite with the public wherever in the world these artists toured their live shows.
