Fresh on the heels of a show with his Legendary Rhythm and Blues Revue partner Tommy Castro, Ronnie Baker Brooks is coming to the Pikes Peak Region for one show only. Brooks is the son of legendary Chicago blues man Lonnie Brooks. "I grew up among the best of the best," Brooks says. "Every time I play, I feel like I've got to do it with the authenticity and passion that I saw in guys like Buddy Guy, Muddy Waters, B.B. King and my father. But I also have to put my twist on it. None of those guys repeated what came before them." Brooks' twist involves enlivening blues-rock with deep soul and funk rhythms. Working with Minneapolis producer Jellybean Johnson, a veteran collaborator of Prince and Janet Jackson, Brooks takes roots sounds and transforms them into something that spans the ages. Ronnie Baker Brooks was nominated for the BB King entertainer of the Year Award in 2008.
