*Scheduled musicians subject to change (Please check back with
updates) Some information about the promoters: Tom Radai *Tom Radai is
the longest surviving BLUES AGENT/Mgr.in the USA. The multiple WC
Handy/ KBA recipient, European Music Award and National Leadership
Award winner, has been in business longer then anyone still active in
the BLUES SCENE. Tom has said that his curiosity about BLUES CULTURE
PEAKED WHEN HE STARTED HANGING OUT AT MAXWELL STREET IN THE EARLY
1960'S AND MEETING SOME OF THE PEOPLE WHO WERE EVENTUALLY TO BECOME
HIS CLIENTS. His love for the music came at an even earlier age when
most teenagers were interested in other things. Tom Radai's roots in
the BLUES ARE LONG AND DEEP. Initially launching his career in booking
and management in 1964 with his first client, Otis Spann. Tom soon
added to his talent roster the likes of Johnny Young, Eddie Taylor,
Johnny Littlejohn and Charlie Musselwhite from 1968 to 1979. Tom
Radai's BLUES MANAGEMENT GROUP SOON BECAME NOTORIOUS FOR THE 'BLUES
ALL STAR' PACKAGES HE TOURED WORLD-wide. One such package based out of
Chicago teamed Jimmy Rogers and Eddie Taylor, Detroit Jr./Johnny 'Big
Moose' Walker, Wild Child Butler, Sam Lay, Bob Anderson and Lucile
Spann. A few years after this package toured the legendary Jimmy
Rogers became a full time client which lead to a relationship lasting
nearly 25 years, which included engagements with the Rolling Stones
and Eric Clapton, numerous national television appearances, and a
monumental recording on Atlantic Records. On January 8, 2001, Tom
Radai was instrumental in re-naming the South Honore Street in Chicago
"Jimmy Rogers St". A 'West-coast AllStar' package that Tom organized
in the late 1970's included the legendary George 'HARMONICA' SMITH
TEAMED WITH THE GREAT PHILLIP WALKER PLUS A SECOND YOUNG HARMONICA
GENIUS BY THE NAME OF WILLIAM CLARKE. In addition to his BLUES
CREDENTIALS, Tom has promoted Rock & BLUES CONCERT SERIES THAT
INCLUDED THE GRATEFUL DEAD, Quicksilver Messenger, and Canned Heat.
Tom Radai's talent roster had included: The Phillip Walker Band, The
Jimmy Rogers Legacy (tribute to Jimmy Rogers.) Eddie Taylor Jr., Steve
Guyger, plus 'The NEW Legends Of BLUES ALLSTARS' (Eddie Taylor Jr.,
Steve Guyger, Bob Stroger, Billy Flynn and 'Piano Willie'). In
addition The NEW Legends Of BLUES DUO WITH STEVE GUYGER AND BILLY
FLYNN. Tom has been a tireless advocate for Traditional BLUES, one
reason why over 75% of his talent roster have stayed for an
unprecedented 15 to 25 years. He is still doing business in the USA,
Canada, Europe. Tom can be reached at: The BLUES MGT GROUP -2413 South
