Club Fox First Thursday Blues welcomes brilliant, innovative, authentic blues master Chris Cain.

<h3>Take some influence from B.B. King, Albert King, Ray Charles, and a pinch of Albert Collins. Add in dazzling blues and jazz guitar chops, a rich soulful baritone vocal delivering original, often wry and beleaguered lyrics with sophisticated chord changes and instrumentation, and skills on various horns and keyboards, all delivered with an uptown cool that never lacks searing passion. It all adds up to the one and only Chris Cain, who has gone from being a newcomer phenomenon bursting onto the blues scene in 1987 with a classic debut release, to being a legend, inspiration, and long-established member of the blues pantheon.</h3><h3>Upon first discovering Cain in 1987, Guitar Player raved, "Cain is an impressive, top-notch guitarist. His full-bodied tone and surprisingly big voice packed a punch that had me reeling." The Washington Post declared, "Chris Cain is a hot-shot guitarist and a singer with the maturity of old blues masters like Bobby Bland and B.B. King." Guitar icon Robben Ford said, "Chris Cain is for real. He's a great blues player with an intensity that keeps you on the edge of your seat, wondering what he'll do next. Plus he knows how to write a song you haven't heard before, full of humor and insight. If you like the blues, you'll like Chris Cain. I am a stone fan.")</h3> According to Kid Andersen, there's no better blues player working today. "Chris Cain is the rarity whose blues prowess is so undeniable that he has gained everyone's approval. Ask any of your favorite guitar players who they think are the greatest living masters of the instrument, chances are they will all have Chris Cain at the very top of their list."One of the truly great blues guitarists of his generation. Chris Cain is the most important blues guitar player you need to hear. Marvelous and irresistible...He unleashes unadulterated fretboard genius." VINTAGE GUITAR MAGAZINE"A heady stew of rough-and-tumble electric blues...potent guitar work and rough, lived-in vocals are edge-of-your-seat stuff. Cain’s exceptional original songs relentlessly reveal startling hooks and riffs amidst a wash of piercing, razor-sharp guitar." - BLUES &amp; RHYTHM"“Chris Cain is one of the most brilliant and vital figures making music of any kind...He’s near legendary on the blues scene...an extraordinarily talented, consummate musician delivering passionate, heartfelt vocals, potent, superb playing and marvelous songs" - BLUES MUSIC MAGAZINE<h2> </h2>
