BLUES PROPHETS
Welcome the seasoned Blues Prophets! These guys have been rocking the scene for five decades and show no signs of slowing down. As a teenager, David "DW" Gill learned to play his blues harp down by the train tracks. He must have picked Jeff Davison from one of the first trains through, because Jeff keeps the band together with a steady locomotion shuffle rhythm. Follow that with a walloping dose of Doug Wainoris on heartfelt guitar, Jamie "Jake" Isaacson on absolute Chicago piano & organ, and Jack Tukey on a tasty bass. Absorb the timeless soul that these blue tunes bring those who listen, especially from the likes of these prophets. Blues Prophets introduced many local patrons to blues music.
The band traveled to the blues bars of Chicago, played many stages in New Orleans, Washington, D.C., Boston, and throughout Maine/New England, honing their craft and becoming an institution. During their travels they met and played with living legends of the day such as James Cotton, Otis Rush, Muddy Waters, Professor Longhair, Jimmy Johnson and Bonnie Raitt.
