Event Description
For 46 years (or as he says "roughly a couple million miles"), Jack de Keyzer has been hitting the road, air and studio to bring his brand of guitar-driven blues around the globe.
With 13 albums, 2 Junos and 7 Maple Blues Awards, de Keyzer delivers the goods wherever, whenever he performs. Playing over 100 shows a year, de Keyzer’s music is steeped in Chicago blues, London England’s (de Keyzer’s birthplace) blues rock, Detroit’s Motown, Muscle Shoals deep soul, Memphis’ rock and roll, and Philadelphia’s funky soul jazz.
De Keyzer knows firsthand as he has played with many first-generation pioneers of these sounds and styles: Bo Diddley, Otis Rush, Etta James, King Biscuit Boy and Ronnie Hawkins to name a few. His latest recording TRIBUTE (2020) features 12 rousing new original blues, rock and soul songs and pays tribute to the great blues and rock guitar masters, singers and songwriters de Keyzer has been influenced and inspired by through the years.
A tour de force by an artist at his peak powers. See and hear Jack de Keyzer with his incredible band on the TRIBUTE tour.
