Shemekia Copeland’s new album ‘Blame It On Eve,’ out now via Alligator Records, sustains a level high enough to which other contemporary blues albums struggle to reach. The list of musicians who sat in is a who’s who of talented headliners in their own right: Americana superstar Alejandro Escovedo, guitarists Luther Dickinson and Charlie Hunter, lap steel master Jerry Douglas, and young sacred steel wizard DaShawn.
The longest tenured band in Alligator Records’ history as the premier blues label, this band is fronted by the rawest of the raw on guitar. This group puts on a show that would peel paint off a classic Cadillac, let alone an Imperial.
‘The Hits Keep Coming’ is a career-defining album of adult songs with references reflecting Rick’s long strange trip into the blues.

The 28-city tour will take Cannon from the Midwest to the East Coast and back, including dates in Chicago, New York City, Philadelphia, Washington D.C. and Boston!
