My Story With The Blues

“My definition of the blues is the naked cry of the human heart longing to be in union with God.”
– Dion DiMucci

Rob Thompson, 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

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.
