King Louie & Sweet Baby James		Print This Page Email This Page

Special appearances by vocalist Linda Hornbuckle and pianist Janice Scroggins


Featuring Louis Pain on Hammond B-3 organ, vocalist “Sweet Baby James”, Renato Caranto on sax, Micah Kassell on drums and Eddie Martinez on guitar.

Best known for their hit engagements at Portland’s Jimmy Mak’s and their electrifying sets at the (Portland) Waterfront Blues Festival, King Louie and Baby James bring their soulful spontaneity to the Joyce Garver Theater stage. Be prepared to enjoy Hammond B-3 organ, an unusual instrument that is as awkward and heavy as a commercial refrigerator, but contributing a rich, deep, colorful tone to the blues vibe! Linda Hornbuckle has been described as the most beautiful and powerful blues/gospel/soul voice in the Pacific Northwest. Portland band leader Paul deLay describes Janice Scroggins as the most gifted musician we have in Portland and can probably lay claim to a much larger territory than that; I think she’s a world leader, really.
