A Brief History of the Country Blues and How They Influenced My Songwriting
Arlington Heights Historical Society, 110 W. Fremont, Arlington Heights
Entertainment and history with a beat! I'll play songs of my favorite blues guitar stylists from the 1920s/30s including Blind Blake, Blind Lemon Jefferson, Robert Johnson, Charley Patton and Mississippi John Hurt. I'll explain where this music came from how these legends influenced rock & roll—as well as my own slightly off-kilter songwriting. Limited Seating. To reserve a spot ($10 for non-members, free for members) call Carol at the museum: 847-255-1225 or send her an email: cfrieburg@ahpd.org
