With over five decades as a driving force in American roots music, Robert Cray has become one of the most respected names in modern blues and soul. Now he brings his The Robert Cray Band to Lund.
Born in Georgia and raised in Washington, Robert Cray was exposed to the guitar early on after watching The Beatles on TV – and after experiencing Jimi Hendrix live, it was clear that music was his path. Since then, he has developed into a distinctive artist where blues, soul and rock meet in a personal and timeless expression. With five Grammy Awards, millions of albums sold and a place in the Blues Hall of Fame, Robert Cray now belongs to the absolute elite.
Together with his band, Robert Cray has continued to constantly renew and deepen his expression. The albums of recent years show an artist who is growing rather than leaning back, with a voice and guitar playing that have only become more expressive with time. When The Robert Cray Band takes over Mejeriet, an evening of soulful blues, timeless soul and first-class musicianship awaits.
The concert is arranged by FKP Scorpio & Mejeriet.
