Saturday March 27th marked a special day when legends of the blues music scene took the stage at Key West Crazy in Little River, SC.   The three piece group, Chicago Bob (Lead Guitar/Vocals), Digger T (Harp/Rhythym Guitar/Vocals), and Bobby Liddle (Drums/Backup Vocals), took the stage and laid down the soul as they played their mixture of original blues and covers with a southern rock twist. Chicago Bob and Digger T have been true blues brothers for over 20 years. The duo continues creating and playing tunes that have helped shape and have become a part of the blues scene

The doors opened at 8 p.m. and the Way Down Wanderers performed from 9-10 p.m. Their traditional bluegrass sound reminded me of the Henhouse Prowlers. Both bands showcase the Chicago bluegrass style, and I enjoyed listening to their approach to live music before the Jeff Austin Band got ready to go.
