Memorial Opera House presents An Evening of Blues with Alligator Records recording artists The Cash Box Kings and Lil’ Ed & The Blues Imperials.
MOH welcomes back The Cash Box Kings after several years, headlining with Intrepid Artists International artist Lil’ Ed & The Blues Imperials on April 15 for an evening of flawless and soulful original blues. The Cash Box Kings are bona fide blues royalty. Co-led by real-deal Chicago blues vocalist and songwriter Oscar Wilson and Madison, Wisconsin-based songwriter, harmonica giant and singer Joe Nosek, the band plays masterfully raw and unvarnished house rocking blues. Wilson’s huge, gritty vocals and Nosek’s powerhouse harmonica fuel their razor-sharp original songs. With their top shelf musicianship and trademark good humor, The Cash Box Kings are a one-of-a-kind blues band.
In Chicago, a city overflowing with unrivaled blues talent, world-renowned Lil’ Ed & The Blues Imperials have been standing tall for over 30 years – an extraordinary feat for any group. The band’s big sound, fueled by Lil’ Ed’s gloriously rollicking slide work and deep blues string bending, along with his rough-edged, soulful vocals, is as real and hard-hitting as Chicago blues gets. The Chicago Sun- Times says, “Lil’ Ed & The Blues Imperials are the hottest purveyors of bottleneck boogie to come out of Chicago since Hound Dog Taylor.”
This event is sponsored by Memorial Opera House Foundation, a 501(c)(3) not-for-profit entity. The Mission of Memorial Opera House Foundation is to provide financial support to Memorial Opera House so that they may use theatre and the arts to build community and create a sense of belonging.
