Join Brother Yusef, the self-proclaimed king of organic deep-fried Fattback Blues, for this one-of-a kind concert in celebration of Black History Month!
Brother Yusef's music is exuberant and bouncing with a highly rhythmic beat. He is a self-taught musician and has been described as a master solo guitarist and a uniquely passionate vocalist. His performances are raw, honest and as real as the genre has ever aspired to be. Honed over thirty years, he calls his multifaceted style Fattback Blues for its a rich mix of Delta, Chicago, and Texas blues alongside a hard-driving Louisiana stomp.
Fattback Blues combines "traditional" fingerpicking and slide guitar playing with the contemporary feel of urban blues, rock, and funk. He uses his right-hand thumb to beat out a percussive bass-line and shuffle while the index finger plays rhythm and lead lines, creating a full band sound with a solo guitar.
Free and open to the public. Seating is on a first-come, first-served basis and may be limited. For more information call 702.507.3964.
