Lucky Strikes Middletown

The Cypress Restaurant, 1265 Main Street, has a really big weekend of music including a visit from internationally known blues musician Lucky Peterson.  Peterson, equally adept at keyboards and guitar as well as a fine vocalist, has had a long and exciting career, performing for 44 of his 47 years!  At the age of 8, he recorded with blues legend Willie Dixon and 9 years later toured with blues vocalist Little Milton.  Before launching his own career, he spent time on the road with Bobby "Blue" Bland. 

Joining him on Friday night (1/28) at The Cypress will be his wife Tamara (vocals) and the great local drummer Liviu Pop. The show starts at 9 p.m. and the cover charge is only $5.00!

Saturday night (1/29), the Dayton Rich Band returns to The Cypress for an 8 p.m. show. Guitarist Rich fronts an impressive quartet including local folks such as bassist Joe Cannata, drummer John Morello and multi-instrumentalist Dean Coutsuridis.  Need more information?  Call 860-346-3367.
