LIVE IN LONDON
*GRAMMY AWARD NOMINEE!
BEST CONTEMPORARY BLUES ALBUM

Purchase @ Alligator Records:
https://www.alligator.com/albums/Live-In-London-2CD/

Recorded in front of a rabid crowd at The Garage in London, this release is a white hot testament to the exhilarating live Kingfish experience. Christone is in masterful control whether blasting out molten, rock-infused riffs or picking the bluesiest single notes this side of heaven. At 16 songs and 109 minutes long, it’s a motherlode of blues magic, and the set list is a fan’s dream show, including “Outside Of This Town,” “662,” “Another Life Goes By” and a new, previously unrecorded song, “Midnight Heat.” “Christone ‘Kingfish’ Ingram has already made his mark as one of the best, and undoubtedly most exciting, blues guitarists in the world.” –Guitar World

IT IS MORE THAN A CRUISE...
@designsbynitrice has been Bluesin’ with LRBC since 2010, and her words say it best: “Coming back each year feels like coming home.” Family, music, unforgettable meals, and memories call her back year after year. Others may imitate our format, but they’ve never captured the magic of the Blues Cruise. #LRBC #BluesCruise #CruiserTestimonial #SouthernAvenue #BluesFamily
