Concert Review: Charlie Hunter at the 8×10
February 1st, 2010
Simply said: Charlie Hunter is a must see.
| What a unique performance – you see Charlie plays a 8-string guitar. Charlie’s dexterity and nimbleness are effortless. He slips in and out of the blues, into some nasty funk (w/ slap bass accouchements) into some swing even Oscar Peterson would be proud.
Charlie’s latest album: ‘Gentlemen, I Neglected To Inform You You Will Not Be Getting Paid‘ was well represented. |

| The interaction between the drummer (Eric Kalb) and trombonist (Curtis Fowlkes) were on point and you could see them exploring some new space. I especially enjoyed the sounds of New Orleans as my wife rhetorically asked: “Where is the second line?” Checkout this video on YouTube for just a sample of these unique performers.
This was live music at its best in a small venue such as the 8×10. |
