ROY ROGERS & The Delta Rhythm Kings
PLUS SPECIAL MUSICAL GUEST
Blues legend & Vallejo native Roy Rogers in concert with his full band the Delta Rhythm Kings. A return engagement following his sold-out Empress debut last year, Rogers was the most talked about concert of 2009! Considered one of the masters of slide guitar, the multi-Grammy winning guitarist and his band will have you dancing in your seat!
Rogers has played guitar since he was 12 years old. A regular in John Lee Hooker's Coast To Coast Blues Band,his multi-Grammy winning talents have been touted by the press with such comments as: "Many guitarists dabble in slide guitar, but the number of modern masters can probably be counted on one hand. Roy Rogers is surely one of them" (Guitar Player). Rolling Stone offered, "Rogers is an exceptionally articulate slide guitarist... one of the rare guitar heroes who values feeling over flash," while USA Today commented, "Pundits who bemoan the scarcity of guitar gods haven't laid ears on Roy Rogers, whose slide riffs could peel a crawfish." "Rogers is both a sensational and a sensitive blues guitarist - certainly among the finest slide guitarists playing today. His wailing slide guitar sound (and churning rhythms, when needed) mark him and his work as of the highest caliber." (San Francisco Chronicle)
