"The soul of a singer/songwriter combines with the emotion of blues and the power of rock" as acclaimed Blues/rock recording artist Alex Lopez and his band The Xpress perform their special brand of British infused blues mixing blues, rock, pop, and even funk. Alex and his band create a blues sound that is uniquely mesmerizing within a framework of melodic memorable songs. With 2 #1 albums on the blues/rock radio charts and a top ten on the Billboard charts, Alex is recognized as a modern master of contemporary blues and along with his band will deliver a high-energy performance for a show you will remember. Alex and the band will be performing songs from their ground-breaking 2022 release "Nasty Crime" being hailed as one of the year's best, along with songs from his other 6 albums.
Making this concert even more provocative, Juno Award-winning powerhouse Crystal Shawanda will join Alex with her latest studio album, Midnight Blues, on True North Records. Her latest fiery blues collection showcases her full-throttle raspy voice, unmatched in today’s musical landscape, and an authentic appreciation for the genre dating back to her youth. Produced and engineered in Nashville by her husband and long-time collaborator Dwayne Strobel, Midnight Blues — her eighth studio album, and fifth since switching from a chart-topping career as a country artist — is a collection of original songs, such as the seductive-sounding rocker “Midnight Blues,” swampy dancefloor groove “Rumpshaker,” and gentler “Take A Little Walk With The Moon,” as well as covers of the Howlin’ Wolf classic “Evil” and her take on Celine Dion’s hit “That’s Just The Woman In Me.”
