Blues and Bourbon Wednesdays: Quique Gómez and Bay Area All-Stars

Presented by Swell Productions and The Starlet Room at The Starlet Room

Direct from Spain, Quique Gómez will be accompanied by his Bay Area blues all-stars: Johnny "Cat" Soubrand on guitar and vocals. His newest release, Cookin' at Greaseland, was recorded in late 2019 with his great friends, Little Charlie Baty and Kid Andersen. The album has just been released in Europe, but has not yet been released in America.

Harmonicist and singer born in Madrid, Quique started playing harmonica at age 18 and assembled his first band, Juan Bourbon, Juan Scoth and Juan Beer, at the age of 20. It’s with this band he traveled the Spanish stages during the following decade, while studying and running a small club. In 2008, he visited Chicago and met some of the Blues’ greatest exponents with whom he started playing frequently on both sides of the Atlantic. Quique has stepped on stages from five continents, sharing them with artists such as John Primer, Eddie C. Campbell, Bob Stroger, Rockin' Johnny Burgin (with whom he released the 2018 acclaimed CD), Jimmy Burns, Tail Dragger, and Kenny "Blues Boss" Wayne.

Quique Gómez and His Vipers, the band he works with regularly, are currently presenting Dealin ‘With the Blues, released already in Europe, South America, EEUU, and Japan. With 11 albums released so far and more on the way, Quique is releasing his last two records Dealin’ with the Blues with his Quintet, The Vipers and his Acoustic work with the Guitar player Francisco Serrano where Quique plays harp, Mandoline, guitar, and vocals.
