Here is the tour communiqué:
Johnny Winter, sacred monster of the blues, and Eric Sardinas, among the number one of the new generation of guitarists, are stopping over in Italy for four concerts that fans of the genre have been waiting for: on 4, 5, 6 and 7 March 2010, the two will be with their respective bands in Roncade (TV), Trezzo d'Adda (MI), Forlì and Rome.
Johnny Winter, the master, one of the most influential blues guitarists ever, as well as an excellent producer, has been a true godfather to his pupil Eric Sardinas, artistically speaking. The latest album by Eric Sardinas & Big Motor was produced by Johnny Winter and now the two are touring together.
The importance that Winter has had and continues to have in contemporary music is there for all to see, as the likes of Jimmy Page and Eric Clapton rate him as the most creative of their generation. Since he recorded his first album in 1969, he has become the true reference for slide guitar and his latest album released in 2004, 'I'm a Bluesman', shows that after 25 years his sound is still relevant. Not surprisingly, the album won a Grammy Award.
Eric Sardinas, on the other hand, represents the wilder, more primordial side of the blues. His approach to music is instinctive and visceral. Together with Joe Bonamassa (who will be in Italy in November and December for two dates), he is considered the best guitarist of the new generation. His first album dates back to 1999 and he amazed the blues world by applying distorted sounds to an acoustic Dobro guitar.
The latest album simply bears the name 'Eric Sardinas & Big Motor', recorded in the company of his band currently consisting of Levell Price on bass and Bernie Pershey on drums.
