Cleveland’s Blue Lunch has been entertaining area audiences and filling dance floors for nearly 40 (!) years, with their lively mix of jump blues, R&B, swing, and early rock & roll, propelled by a three-piece horn section, and releasing eight albums. The nine-member band features veteran members who’ve been with the band a long time; others, such as vocalist Maya Nicholson and recent Florida transplant guitarist/vocalist Billy Seward, are new. Ad trhey often vrin guest musicians on board to liven up their shows.
This week the band is celebrating those four decades with a special show at one of their regular stomping grounds, the BOP STOP. And they’ll continue their tradition of bringing in out-of-town guest musicians with Columbus guitarist/vocalist Sean Carney and Akron-based Hammond organ player Tim Longfellow joining them to make their already big sound even more expansive.
