On February 17, get your groove moving at the “Cadillac Assembly Line: A Tribute to Albert King.” King, a left-handed “upside-down/backwards” guitarist, influenced many prominent artists, from Eric Clapton and Jimi Hendrix to Stevie Ray Vaughn.

The event includes an early warm up in the lobby with a performance from Chicagoan Fernando Jones. Then the curtain will rise at 7 p.m. with Big Time Sarah. A regular on the Chicago blues club circuit, Sarah's gritty, raw voice is a welcome addition to the lineup.

The evening proceeds with a cavalcade of talent beginning with The Platium Band, Blues guitarist Melvin Taylor, and fellow guitar genius, Lurrie Bell. The tribute would not be complete without Carl Weathersby, who at one time was Albert King's rhythm guitarist and whose career was mentored by him.

Headlining the event is the self proclaimed Old Gangster of Hip Hop Blues, Sir Mack Rice. This fabled singer/songwriter's is known for “Mustang Sally” and the title song for this event, “Cadillac Assembly Line.” The event concludes with a jam session featuring all of the evening's performers to round up the event and make sure the last words of your night are “All you want to do is ride around Sally, ride, Sally, ride.”
