Chicago Blues Documentary Featuring John Primer Premieres Online This Weekend — Your Invitation to the Show

The following message is being forwarded from Lisa Primer to announce
and promote a documentary film that is premiering online this weekend.
As a follower of Jazz & Blues Florida, you are aware of John Primer's extremely successful tours throughout Florida in recent years. John is also a central figure in this film. If you appreciate his blues, you will appreciate the music even more after learning where it came from. Aside - John returns to Florida in early 2027!

Hi Friends,

Many of you have been listening to John's music for years, but before there were world tours, awards, and recordings, there was Theresa's Lounge.

For John and for so many of Chicago's greatest blues musicians, it was where they learned from the masters, earned their first paying gigs, and became part of a musical family.

I'm so excited to invite you to see the new documentary, The Basement That Built the Blues: A Tribute to Theresa's Lounge.

This documentary was made while John Primer, Billy Branch, Bob Stroger, Willie Buck, Mary Lane, Carlos Johnson, John Watkins, Harmonica Hinds, Twist Turner, Tony Mangiullo, and Jeff Brinkman came together to record John Primer & Friends' Tribute to Theresa's Lounge. This film captures their personal memories of one of the most important blues clubs in history. These aren't stories from historians—they're told by the people who lived them.

If you appreciate John, Chicago blues, and the history behind this incredible music, I know you'll really enjoy this film.
