Still on the road, Blues Traveler rocks the Riviera with 30th anniversary tour celebrating the magic of ‘Four.’ While musical history was on the bill that night, the show also featured an appearance by the fast-rising multi-instrumentalist Vanessa Collier as the opening act.

Both bands are currently on tour together, co-headlining the Zen Diagram Tour with special guest Lucius. The tour recently stopped in Chicago for a show at The United Center.

An impressive vocal range paired with emotion is just the start. His guitar chops match anyone playing the blues circuit — all fused with humor, expression, banter and unbound energy working the crowd across the stage.

At Park West, The Record Company came out swinging from the initial bell with a one-two punch of the rollicking and foot-stomping “Feels So Good.”

As for his show at Evanston’s SPACE, Johanson charged out of the gates.

Drive-By Truckers didn’t let up the entire evening, burning through their set like 350 heads on a 305 engine.

Fans of guitar-driven roots and blues music will rejoice for Graham and Nichols.
