Special to The Morning Star

Ring in the New Year with a cross-country tribute to the blues from Memphis to Motown.

Rick 91裸聊视频淧oppa Dawg91裸聊视频 Halisheff keeps you moving to a steady beat and a soul-searching drive that emulates the blues greats with Poppa Dawg precision. Dawg is a Blues man with energy and enthusiasm that runs deep. He has worked and shared the stage with many Blues celebrities and Juno Award winners including Tony Coleman (B.B. King), Sonny Rhodes, Fathead and (Mr. Downchild) Donnie Walsh, Jeff Healey, Jim Byrnes, Powder Blues Band, Sherman Doucette, and many more. He has the stage experience and presence of a true journeyman.

Armed with a versatility rarely seen, hard-core Blues fans will love Dawg91裸聊视频檚 ability to channel the energy and sound that has echoes of Albert King and Howlin91裸聊视频 Wolf. He can bring the slinky grooves reminiscent of Dr. John and the hard-hitting edge of Stevie Ray Vaughan. Guitar fanatics will be at the edge of their seats as Dawg delivers each song as if he is living and breathing it from the inside out. Of special note are the rare songs in which he employs the little used 91裸聊视频渧oicebox91裸聊视频 popularized in the 1970s by Peter Frampton.

From the age of three, Halisheff, knew that music was to be his life91裸聊视频檚 path. Even at that time he could make sense of the keys on an organ and had the feeling of music within his tiny frame. In his teens, he was fascinated by all the great guitarists in the blues world and happened to be teaching himself guitar at the time.

Hailing from the 91裸聊视频楲eft Coast91裸聊视频 of Canada, Poppa Dawg has toured extensively throughout Western and Northern Canada with stints in La Paz, Mexico at The City of Peace Blues Festival and in 2013 as a participant at the 29th International Blues Challenge in Memphis. They made it to the semi-finals there and along the way forged some very strong friendships with friends around the world.

His influences are varied to say the least with artists from Dr. John and Ray Charles to Freddie King and Howlin91裸聊视频 Wolf and on stage, you can clearly hear them coming through the soul of this big man. Gritty and dynamic, he takes the music from rushing peaks to hushing lows and then steps back from the microphone to deliver the news!

Poppa Dawg will be onstage at the Vernon Jazz Club (3000-31 St.) on Monday, Dec. 31 at 9 p.m. Doors open at 8 p.m. Cash only bar on site. Tickets $60 online at vernonjazz.com and at Expressions of Time (2901-30 Ave) with a $5 rebate at the gig for VJS members.
