Harrah's Voodoo Lounge
 
Chicago blues man Ronnie Baker Brooks rocks the foundations of the genre every time he hits the stage. His rock-solid four-piece ensemble continues to dazzle audiences across the country and will make a stop for a FREE (yes, free) show at Harrah's Voodoo Lounge on May 8 on the heels of performing at the legendary Beale Street Music Festival in Memphis.

St. Louis has embraced this Chicago native with increasing enthusiasm since his first visit to Broadway Oyster Bar in 2005. This will be his premiere show at the Voodoo Lounge. Featured prominently on three of the summer's top 10 blues CDs, Brooks boasts recent collaborations with Eddie ‘the Chief" Clearwater, Elvin Bishop and the Tommy Castro Band, to name a few.
 
Ronnie Baker Brooks is the son of blues legend Lonnie Brooks and has several performances planned this fall with his father and his younger brother Wayne on the Legendary Rhythm and Blues Cruise that departs from San Diego. Don't miss this great opportunity to catch a rising blues star at a rare free performance.
