Little Charlie's blues in Lynchburg
If you don't know who Eric Clapton is, skip to the next headline. Music is not in your scope of interest. But if music is one of life's pleasures for you, don't miss Little Charlie and the Nightcats, an awesome blues band playing at The Ellington in Lynchburg on Friday night.
The band has pioneered the jump blues/swing revival, started on the West Coast. We'll get into it, eventually. Aside from great musicianship, innovative original stuff and blazing performances, their music makes you want to get up and dance!
Get tickets at Lynchburg stores or call (804) 845-2162.
