Believe me when I tell you, you may never see another show like this in your lifetime! Jamey's is proud and super excited to announce that not one, or two, but THREE of our favorite artists will be on stage together for a show that will singe your eyebrows and scramble your brains. Each one is a superstar on their own, and together - I just don't know how to say it, but you'd be utterly remiss not to come for this spectacular event.Kelli Baker is one of the most notable up and coming artists in the blues world. She is stunning in every sense of the word. If you could somehow pour Ella Fitzgerald into the body of Mae West, you might get the idea.
Kelli tours consistently around the United States. Performing with The Kelli Baker Band, she appears at notable venues such as The Cutting Room, House of Blues Chicago, Jamey's House of Music, Knuckleheads Kansas City, The Rhythm Room, The Sand Dollar, and holds a residency at NYC’s iconic venue, The Bitter End. Kelli recently headlined both the Women of the Blues Festival in McIntosh, MN, and the Paxico Blues Fest in Kansas City, KS, which draws 5,000 people.
Her show-stopping track, “Blood on the Nile” was met with critical acclaim, landing on Spotify’s coveted editorial playlist, “Blues Roots.”
Kelli’s take on Aretha Franklin’s “Dr. Feelgood (Love is a Serious Business)” recently hit #1 on the Blues Rock chart, Roots Music Report, as well as #2 on the chart for Top 50 Blues Songs, days after its release.
Kelli has swiftly moved through the ranks of New York’s bristling music scene to become a known name and formidable player in the game. She has been featured in Relix Magazine, Guitar Girl Magazine, and countless others.
Kelli Baker Band has recorded at VUDU Studios with producers Mike Watts and Frank Mitaritonna, Cove City Sound Studios with Richie Cannata (Billy Joel, Lords of 52nd Street) and John Arbuckle (Justin Bieber, Jon Bellion), Milk House Studios with multi-platinum producer Philip A. Jimenez (Wheatus, Teenage Dirtbag) and Blokhed Studios with Grammy-nominated producer Tommy Stiegler. Susan Aquila (recorded and worked with Led Zeppelin, Paul McCartney, Steven Tyler) appears on “Cathedral”. Kelli is endorsed by Monster Products, Fret37, ADV, Westone Audio, and Modern Vintage Guitars. She resides in New York City.

Harmonica Slim Derek Matteson was born and raised just outside of Philadelphia. he grew up in a blue collar neighborhood where things are simple, the Eagles were a way life, and a good day meant playing hockey without getting in a fist fight with your buddy. He discovered the blues later in life, and became a student of the many terrific harp players in the region.
It wasn't until he walked into one of the best blues joints in Philadelphia where he heard a master of the instrument play it in a way that lit him on fire. Mikey Junior was on stage with the house band giving the audience a true lesson in what the blues is all about, playing tunes by Little Walter, Sonny Boy Williamson, Junior Wells, and original stuff by Mikey himself. Later on Slim had the privilege of witnessing more mastery of the instrument from one of the east coast's kings of harp, Steve Guyger, which confirmed the blues was his calling in life. Those moments were the inspiration for his journey, which has led him to become one of the finest harp players in the Philly region and beyond. Slim is honored to call himself a member of the Pennsylvania Blues Hall of Fame, as well as being the youngest to receive such an honor. Harmonica Slim has in the years since developed into a national figure with a loyal following wherever he tours.
