DC: MOSE ALLISON AT BLUES ALLEY

DC: MOSE ALLISON AT BLUES ALLEY

The legendary Mose Allison will be performing at BLUES ALLEY (1073 Wisconsin Avenue NW, Washington, DC - 202-337-4141) Thursday through Sunday, January 5th through 8th at 8:00 & 10:00 pm. It would be difficult to find any living jazz artist so utterly, comprehensively American as Mose Allison. His melting-pot piano style, which seamlessly combines the sounds of back country and big city; his carefree, everyman way of singing; his sly cynicism - these are all reflections of the national character, and the basis of his five decades of popularity. Allison, pianist/singer/composer, has been a major influence on musicians of the last 50 years and he has been touring and recording for at least that long. His songs have been recorded by many, among them, The Who, Van Morrison, Bonnie Raitt, Elvis Costello, The Clash and Diana Krall. His singular style, a unique blending of jazz and blues, and his profound lyrical wit, mark him as a true American original. Tickets are $25.
