The music of Alphonso Sanders and Bill “Howl-n-Madd” Perry moves the soul, touches the heart, and opens the mind. The soulful duo blends guitar, horns, and vocals to define their sound. Their musical roots, passion and skill make each show, workshop and clinic unique to its audience - "Blues music in the moment with a life of it's own." Musical experiences around the world have shaped their blues style and sound. From ghostly Robert Johnson nights in blues clubs throughout the Mississippi Delta to stages across the US and abroad the duo plays and sings the blues. Their music, story filled lyrics and vocal style keep you entertained and cause you to reflect on the beauty of simple life, forgetting about your worries and pain. Their Blues Workshop “The School of Jook and Jam Blues” is a true educational experience filled with musical training and first hand history from Mississippi and beyond. Bill shares his guitar concepts for playing blues band rhythm and solo styles as well as solo acoustic accompaniment with singing. Alphonso shares his concepts of solo and section horn playing with blues bands and guitar bluesmen. Alphonso and Bill love both playing and teaching the blues to all ages. The highlight of the SJJB (School of Jook and Jam Blues) workshop is the jam session that follows. Their hands-on workshop ranges from beginning to advance levels; from enhancing ones solo performance to insights in organizing and maintaining a successful blues band. The SJJB draws from a deep well of established musicians providing the best workshop experience possible for all in attendance. Each workshop will be designed to accommodate the skill and interest level of those in attendance. Howl-n-Madd and Alphonso are committed to the heritage of the blues, its history and future. Workshops can range from 1 day to 5 days Clinics can range from 1 hour to 3 hours Concerts can be a part of the “The ultimate blues workshop experience is to have a room filled with passion, self-expression, respect, and motivation to learn and share.” -Alphonso Sanders “ The Blues is not exclusive, we all experience it at one time or another, just ask Big George, David Lee, or BB.” - Bill “Howl-n-Madd” Perry |
