Event Details

You won’t have to travel far this year to experience authentic blues. Inspired by Stevie Ray Vaughan, Albert Cummings exploded on the blues-rock scene in the early 2000s. According to Rock and Blues Muse, “His muscular guitar work is simply outstanding. He’s a great blues singer…with passion for the tunes inherent in his full-throttle approach.” Praised for his masterful guitar work, Albert Cummings has toured and performed with blues legends B.B. King, Johnny Winter and Buddy Guy.

We'll be hosting a supply drive for Findlay Hope House during the concert! Any donations of paper towels, toilet paper, multi-purpose cleaners (Lysol, Pinesol, etc) or laundry detergent are tremendously appreciated!
