performance BY:

BROTHER JOHN

Brother John has been a resident musician at Buddy Guy’s Legends in Chicago for over 30 years. Through his work with Chicago blues greats Buddy Guy & Otis Rush, he has jammed with Eric Clapton, Steve Miller, auditioned for the Black Crowes and acquired ringing endorsements from many other musicians of renown. Led Zeppelin vocalist Robert Plant saw John play with Otis Rush at the Jazz Café in London. When Plant and Kattke met in person at the United Center in Chicago, Plant told Kattke, “You play a mean guitar!” George Benson came to the jam session that Kattke hosts at Buddy Guy’s Legends in Chicago. After hearing the opening set that John played with his band, Benson told him, “You’re fearless! I thought I was fearless! You’re fearless!”

we would like to thank these musicians for their amazing contribution to this event.
