"Strong Persuader" Robert Cray returns hot on the heels of his acclaimed new recording "This Time" - in which he is reunited with bassist Richard Cousins - a member of his band when the classic songs "Phone Booth," "Bad Influence," "Right Next Door," "Smoking Gun" and others were recorded. Featuring a fresh batch of tunes with his trademark soulful vocals, stinging guitar and contemporary lyrics, Robert Cray heightens his stature as one of the foremost bluesmen of the past three decades.
Singer and guitarist Corey Harris will open the concert. Corey Harris has earned substantial critical acclaim as one of the few contemporary bluesmen able to channel the raw, direct emotion of acoustic Delta blues without coming off as an authenticity-obsessed historian. Although he is well versed in the early history of blues guitar, he's no well-mannered preservationist, mixing a considerable variety of influences -- from New Orleans to the Caribbean to Africa -- into his richly expressive music.
