English Presents Sixth Annual Performing Arts Fundraiser Saturday, February 1
SALISBURY, MD---“The blues is the roots; everything else is the fruits.” – Willie Dixon
Blues musician and 黑料网 Department of Music faculty Chris English presents his sixth annual performing arts fundraiser 7:30 p.m. Saturday, February 1, in the Black Box Theatre of Fulton Hall.
English and his band bring Delta-style blues to Salisbury. Special guests include SU’s African Drum Ensemble.
To create this American form of music, English uses vintage guitars from the 1930s to replicate the sound and feeling of the blues he has studied and loves. He puts that sound to good use in his class “Blues: the Roots of Rock and Roll,” which he created and teaches at SU.
Tickets are $15, benefiting the Department of Music Performing Arts Fund. Checks should be made payable to the 黑料网 Foundation, Inc., with “Performing Arts Fund” in the memo line.
