Albert Cummings

Don’t try to paint him in a corner. Albert Cummings is not just the guitar player or bluesman or singer or songwriter. Though he is a master of all of that, he is so much more. He is the complete package, with an approach to blues and rock that has been described as soulful and explosive.

Cummings’ 2015 album, Someone Like You, cemented the artist’s reputation among the top in his field. Rick Davis of the Chicago Blues Guide, said that “Albert Cummings keeps raising the bar with each and every new live concert and release of energetic blues music. After listening to this CD, you will be convinced that blues music is still alive and well.”

Alive and well, indeed. You can hear it up close and personal at The Lyric.
