You can't hold a great Bluesman Down! Chicago Blues legend Stoney B. Blues, is back at Old Town Blues Club. If you consider yourself a Blues purist, than this is a show for you. Stoney B (Michael Stone) was born May 29th, 1954 in Chicago, Illinois. He grew up listening to the blues. His father Lil' Howling Wolf, who lived in Memphis, Tennessee, played and performed the blues in Chicago. Stoney B’s passion for the blues really took hold when he began teaching himself the bass guitar at the age of 13. Stoney B started performing at age 15 in his first band called The Rayshons. They performed and competed mostly in talent shows including one he recalls against The Jackson 5 at the Regal Theatre. Since then he has continued to fulfill his heart felt desire of bringing his music to audiences around the US. In 2023, with over 50 years of experience, he has become a highly accomplished guitarist, vocalist, songwriter and recording artist of the Blues. Stoney B not only has lots of talent but that wonderful gift of communication which grabs people’s attention as he brings them into a truly enjoyable, masterful and often humorous experience as he entertains them with the Down Home Blues. He feels and shares at a soulful level the essence of the blues with strong influences from Muddy Waters, BB King and Jimmy Reed.

Chapman has performed sparingly in recent years. She took the Grammy stage to raucous applause and capped her performance with Luke Combs by receiving a standing ovation.

Ben Carr, who performs as Carrtoons, keeps the producer-led Tiny Desk tradition alive in this set.
