Calling all blues lovers! Singer and guitarist Albert Cummings has played with many of the greatest players of the modern era, and received awards and recognition that few others do. He also just cut a new album STRONG - a potent blend of blues, rock, and raw emotion.

Two special guests join him next week: Award-winning soul-bringer and BB King Entertainer of the year, blues harpist and singer Curtis Salgado, plus Portland native, the internationally loved guitarist Alan Hager!

Who is ready to get their rollicking phat and funky blues on?
