Get ready for a powerhouse night of rhythm, grit, and groove as two titans of the Blues world take the stage—each with their own fiery take on the genre.
First up, the award-winning Johnny Max Band, bringing their signature blend of Memphis soul, Chicago grit, and New Orleans swing. For over 30 years, they’ve lit up stages across Canada and Europe, earning a loyal following with their infectious energy and joyous showmanship. Now touring in support of their 8th studio album, they’re serving up a hot dose of Roadhouse Soul—live and loud.
Then buckle up for Shawn Kellerman, the guitar slinger to the stars. For decades, Shawn has been the go-to player for Blues royalty like Bobby Rush and Lucky Peterson, shredding stages across Europe and the U.S. Now stepping into the spotlight with his latest solo album, Kells Kitchen, Shawn delivers blistering guitar work, raw emotion, and that unmistakable edge that makes him one of the most in-demand bluesmen on the planet.
Friends. Veterans. True believers in the power of the blues—Johnny Max and Shawn Kellerman are bringing it all: the soul, the stories, the sweat, and the sound.
Two masters. One stage. No filler. Just the real deal.
