IT'S GOING DOWN!!!
The Campbell Brothers in Monroe,Mi.
February 27, 2016
The Big Gig! is an extremely popular event--no tickets are required, but seating is general admission, first-come, first-served, and limited to theater capacity. Doors will open at 6:00 pm. This event is held at the
LA-Z-BOY CENTER, MEYER THEATER 1555 S. Raisinville Rd., Monroe, MI 48161
The Campbell Brothers light up stages around the world with “the growling, wailing, shouting, singing and swinging voice of the steel guitar, played as you have never heard it played before,†and for The Big Gig! 2016 they’ll be joined by the legendary, Grammy-nominated folk, soul and blues vocalist Maria Muldaur, best known for her 1974 mega-hit “Midnight at the Oasis.†Making his Monroe debut is Davy Knowles, one of the blues world’s most highly acclaimed up-and-coming guitarists, who’s won over fans from Peter Frampton and Joe Satriani to Lollapalooza and Bonnaroo festivalgoers. Hosting and opening the show will be Detroiter Rev. Robert B. Jones, who began Monroe’s blues tradition in 1988 and has returned each year since.

Saw them about 2 years ago in Thompson Georgia at blind Willie mc tell blues festival. By far the best act there. Hope to see them again. |

I recently saw The Campbell Brothers in Johnson, Vermont.
Chuck has perfected blues harmonica sound, on steel, that is very unique.
He makes the steel sound like like a harp through a mic & amp.
It can be heard on "Hell No! Heaven Yes!, on their "Beyond The 4 Walls" record.
