Big Daddy Wilson (USA)

Big Daddy Wilson (USA)

Kl. 19.00 / entré 100,-

Big Daddy Wilson flyttede til Europa og modsat andre amerikanske bluesartister havde han ikke bluesen med sig men opdagede den i Europa og har siden levet og spillet the blues i hele Europa med base i Tyskland. En fantastisk sanger som med et akustisk band leverer original rootsblues så det er en fryd.

Kl. 22.00 Blues Jam

With his international solo debut on RUF Records Big Daddy Wilson is going to take one step further in his late career as a musician. For “Love Is The Key“ he recorded his own songs exclusively with a small band; taking it back to the roots, often reduced to acoustic instruments, but always full of soul. You can listen to his very first song here,“ Anna“ the song about his wife. Gospel is the foundation for “Keep Your Faith In Jah“, but this doesn’t keep the songwriter Wilson from praising the talents of a gypsy queen from New Orleans, “Jazzy Rose“. In “Hard Days Work“, Big Daddy uses monotone drones for hypnotic effects on the listener, while breezy off beats Jamaica-style let “Dreaming“ to swing along. Autobiographic aspects can be found elsewhere: “Ain´t No Slave“reminds us of the African-American history and at the same time makes us aware of Wilson’s grown confidence. His good friend Eric Bibb guests on two songs about Wilson’s roots ,”Country Boy” , “Walk A Mile In My Shoes”. He’s very proud of Bibb´s presence because “I’ve learnt so much from him,” says Wilson.
