JAMES
BLOOD ULMER TRIO
Tigertail
presents jazz and blues legend James Blood Ulmer, with an electrifying trio
that includes himself, violinist Charles Burnham and drummer Warren Benbow, at
the Colony Theatre, 1040 Lincoln Road, Miami Beach, on November 17, 2012.
Ulmer, who earlier in his career played with pioneering jazz-great Ornette Coleman,
is an iconoclastic genius who mixes it up with the raw power of the blues, R
& B and funk to create an indelible and unique sound. Described by Village
Voice music critic Greg Tate as "...the missing link between Jimi Hendrix
and Wes Montgomery on one hand, between P-Funk and Mississippi Fred McDowell on
the other," Ulmer's guitar style has been fed by a wide variety of
influences, including the great Wes Montgomery.

This
one-night only concert is presented by the non-profit Tigertail Productions, a South Florida leader in innovative cultural work. Says
Tigertail Executive Director Mary Luft, "We've always showcased the best
of jazz and blues legends and leading-edge musicians. James Blood Ulmer fits
right in. Tigertail patrons have been asking for the opportunity to hear him
again and we are excited at the opportunity to return him to the Colony
stage."
James
Blood Ulmer at 70 is among the most distinctive and influential electric
guitarists to arise in the past four decades. James Blood Ulmer has made a
career built on left turns and reinvention. And now in the 21st century, Ulmer
continues to progress as his most recent history finds him being recognized as
an elder statesman of the blues. From his South Carolina
childhood rooted in gospel and blues, his musical path took him to Detroit
Moving
to New York City Africa ,
while simultaneously traversing the American music landscape. Blues, jazz,
funk, country and freeform noise spilled over in dense musical themes and sonic
structures. It is this same Odyssey trio that Tigertail will be presenting at
the Colony Theatre in the November 17 concert.
