Product Details
Toronzo Cannon drives a CTA bus by day and tears up Chicago's blues clubs by night, a detail that's become part of his legend but undersells the depth of his songwriting. His Alligator debut arrived fully formed, the work of a musician who spent years honing his craft on the same South and West Side stages where Buddy Guy and Magic Sam once held court.
"One of Chicago's new greats" —The Chicago Sun-Times "Progressive as he is rootsy...Slow, simmering riffs and smoldering licks" —Chicago Reader Alligator Records has set a February 26 release date for The Chicago Way, the label debut for electrifying Windy City bluesman Toronzo Cannon.
