SUMMARY:Willie J Laws with special guest Ryan Lee Crosby
DESCRIPTION:Willie J Laws\, The Last Pophet of the Funky Texas Blues\, returns to the Lizard Lounge with special guest Ryan Lee Crosby!\n\n\nEVENT IS 21+ \n$18/$22 DOOR \n \nWillie J Laws is truly the last prophet of the “Funky Texas Blues” balancing technical perfection with remaining immensely entertaining\, enlightening\, thought provoking and inspiring. Willie brings a rare combination of world class talent mixed with lovable down to earth personality that causes audiences to fall in love with him everywhere he plays. The Willie J Laws Band just released a new album entitled “Too Much Blues” which is receiving International attention and critical acclaim. \nAlong with Willie\, the band is bringing Lenny Bradford on bass\, Osi Brathwaite on drums\, Bruce Mattson on keys. \nWillie J Laws \n\n\nCrosby’s earliest influences were Iggy Pop\, John Lee Hooker\, the Velvet Underground\, and the Ramones\, and he began playing guitar in bands when he was 14\, after having the instrument for only a week. “The spirit of throwing yourself into whatever speaks to you has always been at the heart of how I engage in music and meaning\,” he says. Crosby moved to Boston in the mid-’90s\, where he founded and fronted the Joy Division-inspired rock band Cancer to the Stars. But by the early 2000s\, the sound and sensibility of deep blues began to permeate his musical character\, until it took over. Since then\, he has released nine LPs\, singles\, and cassettes\, and undertaken a series of European and U.S. tours. \n“For me\, Winter Hill Blues is the culmination of all those experiences and influences\,” Crosby says. “I hear blues\, Indian classical music\, and Malian guitar as being interconnected through the common traits of a centered harmony\, with an emphasis on melody\, supported by repetition and rhythm\, while singing the truth of one’s experience within a spare\, beautiful framework that reflects an openness of mind and heart.” \n \nhttps://ryanleecrosby.com/home
