Jerry Alexander and Andy Ewen

Friday, November 4, 2005

On this night Jerry Alexander and Andy Ewen will each be performing solo sets.

Both Jerry and Andy have made their deep, blue marks in Madison music.

Jerry performed for years with Paul Black in The Alexander/Black Blues Band (later known as
"Kings of the World") one of the truly legendary bands in Madison's music history.Jerry's playing was also featured in the soundtrack for the critically acclaimed film "Hoop Dreams". Jerry's new CD, entitled "Radiator" is "bare bones brilliant". Recorded live in the studio, it features Jerry performing on guitar, harmonica, percussion and vocals - all at once. No gimmick, Jerry's music is powerfully soulful and poetic.

Andy Ewen is best known for his work as frontman for Madison's psycho-bluesrockers Honor Among Thieves. Andy has also contributed his guitar playing to numerous recordings and live music projects. His solo work combines raw, passionate vocals and guitar playing with unique - often surreal imagery.
