"Great houserocking blues from Chicago"
Lil' Ed Williams, small though he may be, is a true giant of the blues. From smoking slide guitar boogie to raw-boned Chicago shuffles to the deepest slow blues, Lil' Ed Williams is a gifted guitarist and a remarkably gritty and soulful vocalist. Williams, along with his blistering, road-tested band, the Blues Imperials, has been tearing up clubs and festival stages all over the world for almost 20 years. With the band's wonderfully raucous music and Ed's flying leaps, back-bending and toe-walking through the audience, and sliding across the stage on his knees, it's no wonder The Boston Globe called Lil' Ed and the Blues Imperials "the world's #1 houserocking band." Hailing from the West Side of Chicago, Ed boasts a direct bloodline to blues history--his uncle and musical mentor was the great Chicago slide guitarist and recording artist J.B. Hutto.
