Founded in 1973, the six-time Grammy winning band has spanned generations with traditional flavored music to mind altering sounds and garnered a reputation as being one of the best damn bands in America. Their latest release, Native Sons, won the Grammy for Best Americana Album in 2022. Cesar’s original blues rock songs as well as his original Cumbia flavored music have helped make Los Lobos what it is.Joining Cesar will be The Chi-Town Playboys featuring Chicago’s own Dave Herrero, Scott Tipping, Ari Seder, Dan Ingenthron and Gerald Dowd.⭐ Jimmy Burns ⭐Jimmy Burns is a versatile musician with deep roots in the Chicago blues scene. Born in 1943 in Dublin, Mississippi, Burns moved to Chicago with his family at the age of twelve in 1955. His musical journey began early, learning to play the diddly bow and guitar as a child, influenced by his father’s musical abilities and the blues records they listened to at home.\n\n\n\nIn Chicago, Burns initially pursued doo-wop and R&B, singing with groups like the Medallionaires as a teenager. He recorded several singles in the 1960s and early 1970s, which have since become rare collectors’ items, especially in the UK’s Northern Soul scene.\n\n\n\nAfter taking a break from professional music to focus on family and run a BBQ restaurant, Burns returned to the blues scene in the early 1990s. He was signed to Delmark Records and released his breakthrough album “Leaving Here Walking” in 1996, which earned critical acclaim and awards.\n\n\n\nBurns’ style blends traditional Delta blues with R&B, soul, and even elements of jazz and rock. He’s known for his strong vocal abilities and guitar skills, as well as his songwriting. Throughout his career, he has toured extensively, playing festivals in Europe, Russia, and South America.\n\n\n\nToday, Burns continues to perform and record, often collaborating with younger musicians. He hosts an open mic night at Buddy Guy’s Legends and is working on a new album called “Full Circle” with a jazz quartet. His discography includes several albums that showcase his diverse musical influences and his ability to interpret classic blues songs as well as write original material.\n\n\n\nDespite his success, Burns remains modest about his talents and passionate about music, emphasizing that there are only two kinds of music: “good and bad.” His life story represents a unique journey through various genres of American music, always circling back to his blues roots.~ The Venue is brought to you by Fox Valley Music Foundation, dedicated to local music awareness, education and preservation.

After Jimmy moved to Chicago in the mid-’50s he discovered a scene that was perfect for the meld of traditional blues, churchy emotionalism, and forward-looking pop/R&B sophistication that by then comprised his musical aesthetic. Live at B.L.U.E.S. captures perfectly the indelible combination of ebullient good spirits, warm-hearted intimacy, and sharp-witted intelligence that characterizes Jimmy Burns, as both a musician and a man. DVD contains 12 songs, two bonus tracks and an audio interview/commentary special feature.\n\n\n\nAlso available: Leaving Here Walking (Delmark 694), Night Time Again (Delmark 730), and Back To The Delta (Delmark DG 770).\n\n\n\n\nhttps://youtube.com/watch?v=P4LxMtqvVws%3Ffeature%3Doembed\n\n
