A Muscle Shoals Music Revue with the Amy Black Band and Angela Perley
When: Thu., June 16, 8:30 p.m. 2016
FAME Studios and Muscle Shoals Sound Studios birthed the “Muscle Shoals sound,” a cross-pollination of blues, folk and soul music. (Sam Phillips said that living in the northern Alabama city influenced his work with Sun Records in Memphis.) This tour, helmed by the dynamic Amy Black, distills the best of that sound into a night of terrific music. With tunes from Etta James, Bob Dylan, Rod Stewart, Bob Seger and many more, you’re getting hooked up with a slice of one of the greatest and longest-running American rock ‘n’ roll traditions. And what better place to do this thang than the Beachland Tavern, Cleveland’s own main musical nerve? (Eric Sandy)
