Panos Iliou …telling the Blues
This solo project is all about the blues… the blues that was born in the heart of the Mississippi Delta. At the Dockery Farms. But it won’t just stay there… it will travel to the south and to the north of the Mississippi state. We ‘ll listen to Delta blues.
Piedmont blues… Bentonia, Hill Country blues… It will also go to Texas… to the East Coast… to Memphis… and finally it ‘ll end up in Chicago, where the modern “electric” blues was born.
It’s called country blues… early blues too… it’s surely the roots. It’s where the blues began. And here is one man, with his guitar and voice, telling… the story of the blues.
“Telling the Blues” can be either a live music performance, a seminar on the history of the blues, or a guitar workshop.
