James Cotton Band & Charlie Musselwhite

Between his huge, blast-furnace sound, his larger-than-life personality, and his massive frame, Grammy Award-winning blues harmonica master James ‘Mr. Superharp’ Cotton is a blues giant in every respect, even being called “the greatest living blues harmonica player” by The New York Daily News. Cotton has recorded almost 30 solo albums, including two highly regarded releases for Alligator Records in the 1980s and the famed Harp Attack! with Junior Wells, Carey Bell and Billy Branch in 1990.
 

Harmonica master Charlie Musselwhite’s life reads like a classic blues song: born in Mississippi, raised in Memphis and schooled on the south side of Chicago. A groundbreaking recording artist since the 1960s, Musselwhite continues to create trailblazing music while remaining firmly rooted in the blues. Living Blues Magazine says, “Musselwhite’s rock-solid vocals creep up and overwhelm you before you know it. He plays magnificent harp with superb dexterity and phrasing. The results are amazing.”
