Mark Hummel Live at The Bull Run

Mark Hummel: Remembering Little Walter live at the Bull Run Restaurant on Thursday, July 11 at 7:30pm.

Grammy Award Nominee and Winner of two Blues Music Awards, Mark Hummel started playing harmonica in 1970 and is considered one of the premier blues harmonica players of his generation. Thanks to over thirty recordings since 1985, including the 2013 Grammy nominated Blind Pig recording ‘Remembering Little Walter’ (part of the Blues Harmonica Blowout CD series). Harmonica giant Little Walter is considered the standard torch bearer by which all others are judged by. In Walter’s short life, 1930-1968 he had more top ten hits then any other Chess Records blues artists. Walter’s amplified harmonica sound was what ignited the Chicago scene for harp in blues in the early fifties with his hit record Juke, a must learn song for all players then and now!

Doors open at 5:30pm for dinner and seating. Showtime is 7:30pm.
