And look what happened. It’s just amazing that we’re all still together after all this time. “If you had asked me twenty two years ago if we’d have the same line up, I would have said, ‘No way!’ ” Original and/or ongoing Love Dogs include Alizon Lis- sance on keyboards and vocals; Glenn Shambroom on guitar and baritone sax; Myanna on tenor and alto sax; Steve Brown on drums; Scheer on vocals and percussion, and Jesse Williams on bass from 1994 to 2000. Randy Bramwell took over the bass duties in 2001. Former players and current fill-in guests include: Jesse Williams, Sax Gordon Beadle, Mario Perrett, Bruce Mc- Grath and Mark Paquin. Scheer said everyone who ever played with the Love Dogs “came to play” and have fun every gig. “Everyone brings dif- ferent qualities to the band. And I’m lucky that it’s all meshed together as well as it has. It’s kind of unbelievable to tell you the truth.” He added, “Steve Brown is my favorite drummer Promo photo by Ken Boege because he plays the jump and New Orleans stuff better than anyone; plus he’s the comedian of the group.

  • The Duke Robillard Band (Usa) „Indepently Blue” – Cd-Präsentation
    29. März bis 6. April 2014 Eine Veranstaltung der HIGHLIGHT THE DUKE ROBILLARD BAND (USA) „INDEPENTLY BLUE” – CD-PRÄSENTATION So, 30. März Kulturfabrik (Stieberstraße 7, 91154 Roth) 20 Uhr, bestuhlt VVK 22,80 €/AK 24 €/ZAC 18,60 € Es führt kein Weg an diesem Gitarristen vorbei. Er spielt fast 200 Gigs im Jahr und mit fast jedermann aus der Topliga des Musikerzirkels. Auch mit Bob Dylan auf dessen „Time Out Of Mind“. Er gründete die legendären Roomful of Blues, die mit Big Joe Turner und Eddie Cleanhead Vinson auf Tour gingen. Egal ob Jazz, Rock, Funk, 50er-Jahre-Chicago-Blues oder Slowblues: Robillard ist unbestritten einer der handwerklich fähigsten Gitarristen der Gegenwart und nun zum ersten Mal in Roth zu erleben. 1948 als Michael Robillard in Rhode Island geboren, zog es den jungen Gitarristen schon früh ins Musikgeschäft. 1967 gründete er mit dem Pianisten Al Copley die erfolgreiche R&B-Combo Roomful of Blues. Nach dreizehn Jahren überließ er seinen Platz dort Ronnie Earl , um Leadgitarrist für Robert Gordon zu werden. Danach war er kurzzeitig Mitglied der Legendary Blues Band . 1981 gründete er die Duke Robillard Band, die sich bald in Duke Robillard & The Pleasure Kings umbenannte. Nachdem die Band 1984 einen Plattenvertrag bei Rounder Records bekam, veröffentlichte sie eine Reihe von Alben und trennte sich 1990 wieder. Im selben Jahr ersetzte Robillard Jimmie Vaughan bei den Fabulous Thunderbirds . Bob Dylan, Jay McShann, Jimmy Witherspoon nahmen Robillards Gitarrenkünste im Studio und auf der Bühne in Anspruch. Seit Mitte der 90er- Jahre ist Robillard vor allem als Solokünstler mit seiner eigenen Band auf Tour und hat über dreißig Platten veröffentlicht, darunter Blueswerke wie „Blues For Modern Man“ (1999) oder „Blue Mood“ (2004).
