Lil' Ed and the Blues Imperials / Hurricane Project at The Law Office

Lil Ed & The Blues Imperials have been standing tall for more than 30 years. The bands big sound, fueled by Lil Eds gloriously rollicking slide work and deep blues string bending, along with his rough-edged, soulful vocals, is as real and hard-hitting as Chicago blues gets. Mixing smoking slide guitar boogies and raw-boned shuffles with the deepest slow-burners, Lil' Ed Williams and his Blues Imperials -- bassist (and Ed's half-brother) James "Pookie" Young, guitarist Mike Garrett and drummer Kelly Littleton -- deliver gloriously riotous, rollicking and intensely emotional blues.

THE BIG SOUND OF LIL ED & THE BLUES IMPERIALS is musically electrifying, emotionally intense and downright fun. It features Lil Ed Williams' incendiary guitar playing and soulful, passionate singing, with the ragged-but-right Blues Imperials cooking like mad alongside him. Williams wrote or co-wrote all but two of albums 14 songs (those two being written by Lil' Ed's legendary uncle, Chicago slide guitar king and master songwriter J.B. Hutto).

With THE BIG SOUND OF LIL ED & THE BLUES IMPERIALS, the band continues to bring their blistering Chicago blues to Ed Heads new and old.
