Lazer Lloyd, Israel's Hottest Blues Rocker, with the Chicago Blues Kings
Nov. 22nd, Lazer Lloyd, Israel's King of Blues Rock, brings to Carmichael, CA, fresh sound, new songs, and deep roots with all-star backing from Felton Crews and Kenny Coleman, the world famous rhythm section of the Chicago Blues Kings.
Lazer is an Israeli singer/songwriter and an international recording artist influenced by blues, gospel, southern rock, and the great guitar traditions of power and groove from Hendrix to Wes Montgomery. His music takes the audience into his world from the tender moments of a traveling musician in "By Your Side", to a man struggling with life "Talk", he opens hearts with his "world soul groove" sound on "Way Down" and "Back Porch" and then rocks with intensity and joy on irresistible tunes like "Good Man Down", "Set My Soul Free", and "Rockin' in the Holy Land".
Lazer Lloyd who has successfully crossed over into the Israeli mainstream music scene, has been featured playing live on Israeli Channel 8 TV's "Guitar Heroes" hosted by Tal Friedman, Channel 10s "London and Kirschenbaum", 88FM with Gedi Livneh, as well as on Yoav Kutner's Army Radio program. Kutner commented, "From the moment the sounds of his blues guitar reached the air it was completely clear that this is an international-level guitarist. His shows are worth every minute. One of the great musicians."
Coming to California fresh from his second tour of Russia, Lazer has opened for such artists as Johnny Winter, Prince, Snowy White, and Olie Brown. Lazer Lloyd's singing and guitar playing has been honed to perfection by his constant touring in Israel and he takes it to the next level with the deep groove and power backing of Chicago stars bass player (Felton Crews) and drummer (Kenny Coleman). They will be playing a riveting set of songs previewing Lazer's upcoming 2015 album of new music and some of his greatest classic tunes.
In addition to the pure pleasure of rockin' the house, Lazer says, "Hopefully, I can help release some pain from someone's heart, make them feel good. I think blues in all its forms continues to generate a devoted following because it's real, it's about everyone's life story and it heals."
This exciting and inspiring evening will be a barn burner of a party full of unity, joy, and music to be held at the historic Congregation Beth Shalom (led by Rabbis Nancy and David Wechsler-Azen, "Where everyone is family") and co-sponsored by the West Coast Blues Society (led by Ronnie Stewart, creator of "The West Cost Blues Hall of Fame & Awards Show").
