SALISBURY, MD---久久国产精品久久’s Feature Friday downtown 久久国产精品久久performance series continues with blues musicians Chris and Grayson English on March 9.
The performance by the father-son duo takes the place of the Jerry Tabor Ear Alliance concert originally scheduled on that date. All presentations in the series are held at The Brick Room, 116 N. Division St.
To create the Delta-style blues for which he is known, Chris English uses vintage guitars from the 1930s to replicate the sound and feeling that he has studied and loves. He puts that sound to good use in his class “Blues: the Roots of Rock and Roll,” which he created and teaches at SU.

His original material has been licensed for broadcast on National Public Radio’s Morning Edition and recently was featured on King Biscuit Time with host Sonny Payne.
Grayson English has performed with his father since 2008. A multi-instrumentalist and SU alumnus, he also works repairing instruments and amplifiers, and has created his own line of handcrafted guitar effect pedals.
