Lil' Ed & The Blues Imperials live at the Joliet Museum

Lil' Ed & The Blues Imperials live in the Museum's Indoor Auditorium Theater Friday, February 9th at 7pm

Lil' Ed & The Blues Imperials perform a live concert in the Joliet Area Historical Museum's Indoor Auditorium Theater venue on Friday, February 9th at 7pm (doors open 6:15pm).

Mixing smoking slide guitar boogies and raw-boned Chicago shuffles with the deepest slow-burners, Lil’ Ed and his blistering Blues Imperials β€” bassist James β€œPookie” Young, guitarist Mike Garrett and drummer Kelly Littleton β€” deliver the blues, from gloriously riotous and rollicking to intensely emotional and moving. The Blues Imperials bring their outstanding and wildly fun Chicago blues to β€œEd Heads” new and old, wherever they may be. One of Conan O'Brien's favorite bands, Lil' Ed & The Blues Imperials bring "Raw-boned, old-fashioned Chicago blues to the masses and will blow the walls down " Guitar Player Magazine.

Doors at 6:15 pm, show at 7:00 pm. Beverage bar, snack vendor, access to museum galleries & exhibits. Only $10 for Museum Members or $12 for General Public. Museum located at 204 N. Ottawa St. in downtown Joliet.
