"My definition of the blues is the naked cry of the human heart longing to be in union with God."
- Dion DiMucci
Rob Thompson, Gqeberha (PE)-based blues guitarist aficionado, uncovers his personal journey in discovering this enigmatic movement in music.
Following on from several SOLD OUT shows in PE plus critical acclaim in CT, "My Story with the Blues" starts with the Latin influence of Carlos Santana, after which the story delves deeper with artists such as B.B. King and Little Walter, to more contemporary artists like Dan Patlansky and even Rob's own original compositions.
Supported by Kristo Zondagh on drums and vocals with Kerry Hiles on bass, Thompson's passionate playing and singing interspersed with anecdotes has received glowing reviews:
"This concert has been the absolute best in this genre I have ever enjoyed in ZA! I would go every month if Rob and band would perform again" - Elmer, German tourist
"It was a superb show - the level of virtuosity, and familiarity between, the three musicians made for a wonderful night out. They played a number of my favourites, and some of their own compositions - which were great. Thanks again, and my 3 companions all felt the same way." - Carolyn, Somerset West
"Absolutely brilliant. You could feel the passion from all three, they really gave their all. The show was so much more than we expected." - Linda, audience member, Drama Factory
"Enjoyed the informative trip of the blues music. Liked the camaraderie, relaxed approach and dexterity of the musicians." - Malcolm, Somerset West
The live trio format allows space for each musician to be expressive in their interpretation of classic blues covers and original songs written and arranged by the band. Don't miss it. Book now!
