The Fabulous Thunderbirds

Kim Wilson didn't learn Chicago blues from records - he learned it from Muddy Waters, Eddie Taylor, and the harmonica legends who shaped the genre. The Fabulous Thunderbirds' "Tribute to Chicago Blues" tour weaves fifty years of traditional cuts with the hits that brought this music to a wider audience, and there's no set list, so the crowd drives the evening. City Winery gives you the kind of intimate room this music was made for.
