Bluesman in town
Brooks Williams will perform at The Queens Head, Chestefield Road, Belper, on May 24.
With bluesy finger-picking, soaring bottleneck slide, and swinging flat-picking, Brooks Williams' music is rooted in the blues.
His unique combination of traditional and original music inspired Dirty Linen magazine to call Brooks Williams one of "America's musical treasures."
His guitar skills won him a place on the Top 100 Acoustic Guitarists list, in company with the likes of Michael Hedges, Chet Atkins, Leo Kottke, Doc Watson, and David Bromberg, to name a few.
Over the years he has recorded 16 CDs for labels like Green Linnet Records and Signature Sounds.
