SUMMARY:* Bull Run Concert Series: John Nemeth & the Bo-Keys featuring Percy Wiggins
DESCRIPTION:4-12-2014 (Sawtelle Room)\n\n\n\nThis is a 9 piece Stax/soul revue of the highest order.\n\n"Make a spot next to the Jackie Wilson exhibit at the Hall\; a new Mr. Excitement is on the way." - Hittin'the Note\n\n"Mr. N meth is a force to be reckoned with in the world of the blues. His voice is\, without a doubt\, incredible. He sings with so much emotion that the listener will not be able to not think of legends such as James Brown\, Percy Sledge\, and B.B. King." - No Depression\n\n"The vocalist/harmonica player and his band here deliver top-shelf goods that can hold their own alongside the finest journeyman work of the mid-Sixties soul era they embrace. N meth & crew are bona fide throwbacks in the most flattering sense of the term. And the cat up front might be the best white r&b singer on the planet.  - Jazz-Blues Report \n\n\n\n"N meth is with little doubt the most accomplished male vocalist of his generation traveling the blues highway today." - East Bay Express \n\n\n\nJohn N meth was probably the only kid in Boise who grew up in the 1980s listening to Chicago blues  \n\nIn the three decades since\, N meth has transformed himself from a fan to a modern soul-blues purveyor of the highest order\, receiving five Blues Music Award nominations in 2012 and two in 2013\, including the B.B. King Entertainer of the Year award.\n\n\n\nThe Bo-Keys are a Memphis Soul group featuring legendary Stax/Volt and Hi Records session players. They performed the original score for "Hustle & Flow\," and appear in the film "Soul Men\," performing on-screen with stars Samuel L. Jackson and Bernie Mac. They also appear on three songs for the film's soundtrack including the Grammy nominated song\, "Soul Music" by Anthony Hamilton. The band's latest release "Got to Get Back!" has been featured on NPR\, the BBC\, the Wall Street Journal and USA Today.  \n\nMembers: Legendary Al Green/Hi Records drummer Howard Grimes\, Scott Bomar\, bassist and one of the most sought-after producer/engineers in Memphis\, Guitarist Joe Restivo & organ player Al Gamble are both members of the Memphis soul/jazz/funk instrumental group\, The City Champs\, Horn players Marc Franklin and Kirk Smothers have recorded and toured with Bobby "Blue" Bland\, Ike Turner\, RZA and Cyndi Lauper\, vocalist Percy Wiggins\, cut sides in the 60s for RCA and ATCO with a band which included Billy Cox and Larry Lee who later went on to become members of Jimi Hendrix's Band of Gypsies.\n\n"This is funky\, greasy\, gritty soul\, rooted in the tradition\, but timeless in its heat-seeking groove stealth." - Thom Jurek\, All Music Guide\n\n"A bubbling stew of Southern-fried soul." - Steve Jones\, USA Today
