JANUARY BLUES FESTIVAL 2027 presents
CHARLIE MUSSELWHITE & KIRK FLETCHER
+ special guests: TBC
+ DJ/Host: Snowboy
The January Blues Festival celebrates it's 10th anniversary year with two special nights featuring legendary American blues harmonica player Charlie Musselwhite with American electric blues guitarist, singer, and songwriter Kirk Fletcher.
For more than six decades, Charlie Musselwhite has remained one of blues music's most respected voices - a harmonica virtuoso whose career has always been rooted in authenticity.
Charlie Musselwhite didn't just witness the golden era of blues; he was baptized in it, cutting his teeth alongside icons like Muddy Waters and Howlin' Wolf, playing in the smoky clubs of Chicago's South Side where the music roared and history was written. The stage became his home, and fifty relentless years of touring shaped him into a master storyteller, his harmonica singing tales of joy, sorrow, and everything in between.
With 20+ albums under his belt, a Grammy in hand, and more than 33 Blues Music Awards lining his path, Charlie Musselwhite's voice and musicianship continue to deepen-like the roots of the music he so passionately embodies. The blues may be timeless, but Charlie Musselwhite is the man who keeps it breathing, one note at a time.
Kirk Fletcher plugs in his guitar and lets out the weight of the world. It's why he's been tapped to complement everyone from Joe Bonamassa, Cyndi Lauper, Fabulous Thunderbirds, Pinetop Perkins, James Cotton on stage and in the studio. It's why he's received several nominations for the Blues Music Award. It's why he's covered Living Blues Magazine and incited the applause of Guitar World, Guitar Player, Guitar and more. It's why he's amassed a beloved solo discography streamed millions of times.
Don't miss this unique pairing in concert over two nights as a European exclusive for the January Blues Festival in 2027.
