Blues at the Bow live show goes June 25

By Medicine Hat News on June 11, 2022.

Blues music will be back at the Bow later this month.

Blues at the Bow has announced it will be hosting Kat Danser & The Tall Tales, with opening act Jimmy & The Sleepers, for another night of the venue’s unique live entertainment on June 25.

Danser – a recent Blues Hall of Fame inductee – has been nominated for four Western Canadian Music Awards, a national Maple Blues Award and won Best Independent Blues Album at the International Blues competition.

“Kat Danser has spent most of her life trawling the backstreets of the blues, and her sixth album ‘One Eye Open’ reflects the fruits of her explorations,” reads a release from Blues at the Bow. “From an old string band melody passed down from the twenties to a lyric written the night before the COVID pandemic shut the world down, the past rides shotgun with the present on everything Kat Danser sings and plays.”

Opening for Danser will be fellow Edmonton band Jimmy & The Sleepers, described as a “gritty, genuine house rockin’ blues band.”
