Legendary bluesman Paul Geremia will be bringing his 6 and 12 string guitars to Mother Fool---s. Influenced by the playing styles of Blind Lemon Jefferson, Blind Willie McTell, Blind Blake, Scrapper Blackwell and Robert Johnson, he is a must see for blues fans and guitar players alike. For 40 years Paul has traveled the world playing his own style of country blues and garnering a reputation as an underground guitar hero. During his rich career he has played and worked with some of the true giants of the blues, including Babe Stovall, Yank Rachel, Son House, Skip James, Pink Anderson and Howard ---Louie Bluie--- Armstrong.
