John Primer
The Red Rooster is honored to welcome the return of John Primer to our stage. When last he played here, Primer had just been informed of his induction into the Blues Hall of Fame. Now, as he returns from a sold-out European Tour, he has a new honor: his tribute album to his former boss, Teardrops for Magic Slim – Live at Rosa’s Lounge, has earned a 2024 GRAMMY AWARD NOMINATION in the “Best Traditional Blues Album” category. This is Primer’s second Grammy nomination!
John Primer has undisputedly helped build the sound and style of Chicago blues as we know it today. From the house bands at Theresa’s and the Checkerboard, to his years as sideman for Muddy Waters, Willie Dixon, and Magic Slim and the Teardrops, to his recent foreign tours and awards – John Primer is a Chicago Blues Living Legend. Joining Primer up front is blues scion Steve Bell, son of Chicago blues harmonica legend Carey Bell, and a pyrotechnic virtuoso in his own right – performing with punctuated finesse in his own trademark style and technique.
