Northwest Park Coffeehouse Concerts Present:
Samuel James Acoustic Blues
The Northwest Park Coffeehouse Concert Series will present Blues performer Samuel James in concert on Saturday March 20 at 7:30 pm at the Northwest Park Nature Center in Windsor.
Samuel James is a performer of stunningly singular talent. A master of fingerstyle, slide, banjo, harmonica , and piano, this phenom is not yet out of his twenties. With musical influences ranging from Skip James and Sonny Terry to Gus Cannon and Charley
Paton, such understanding of prewar blues is rarely embodied in the music of one person.
Samuel James is not a revivalist. His song writing is absolutely unparalleled in contemporary blues, his writing is descended from the long forgotten art of the songster. While musically one could compare him to Patton or Cannon, his writing goes in another direction entirely. His songs are often written as linear stories, novels in musical format: O. Henry meets Moose Allison
The Northwest Park Nature Center is a smoke free, handicap accessible facility located in Windsor, Connecticut. For ticket information and reservations call 860-285-1886 or go on line at www.northwestpark.org. Proceeds will benefit environmental studies at the Park.
