Chris Cain (USA)

US Blues guitar master Chris Cain returns to Australia in 2024. Fresh from tours across the USA, Europe and South America he brings his most recent album Raisin’ Cain (Alligator Records).
Offering up a soulful stew of Memphis style electric blues, his powerfully deep vocals and jazz inspired, blues guitar riffs are unforgettable; uniquely his own, while reminiscent of the legendary BB King and Albert King.

“Chris Cain? Now that boy can PLAY the guitar!” – B.B. King

“Hands down my favourite blues player on the scene today. He’s an absolute blinder of a guitarist, with the voice of B.B. King and the chops of Albert King.” – Joe Bonamassa

“Chris Cain is a hot-shot guitarist and a singer with the maturity of blues masters like Bobby Bland and B.B. King.” – Washington Post
