Alvon Johnson Blues Show in Lafayette California
Blues guitarist and vocalist extraordinaire Alvon Johnson will do a show in Lafayette California on Wednesday evening December 14, 2016, 7:30 pm, at Bistro Burger & Grill, 965 Mountain View Drive, 1/4 block from Mt Diablo Blvd, across the street from Trader Joe's.
Alvon Johnson was music director and vocalist in the famous rock and roll group, The Coasters, who had many worldwide hit songs including Yakety Yak, Charlie Brown, Along Came Jones, and Poison Ivy. Since then, Alvon Johnson has developed his career as an outstanding blues singer, guitarist, and entertainer, performing frequently at well-known venues including Yoshi's in Oakland, and Biscuits and Blues in San Francisco. He has toured overseas with his blues band in Europe and Russia to tremendous acclaim, idolized by blues enthusiasts of all ages including a large following of children. This unusually wide appeal for a blues artist has earned him the title of The Blues Ambassador.
Mr Johnson is well known among blues fans of the Bay Area for his mellifluous vocals, his guitar virtuosity, the energy and dynamism of his performances, and his superb rapport with audiences.
He has recently released a new CD titled The Blues Chose Me, on which most of the songs are his own compositions. He will sign CDs after the show.
If you are already a strong fan of the blues, or you are intrigued with this music which is the basis of all other distinctly American forms of music, and you would like to hear more, Alvon Johnson is the person to hear and to see live. The combination of Mr Johnson's musical and personal charm with this intimate venue will provide an experience of the Blues that is up close and personal.
