20 US Blues Music Award Nominiations: The Best Soul-Blues Singer On The Planet
John Németh & The Blue Dreamers with Special Guests Kid Andersen & Bob Welsh (USA)
20 US Blues Music Award nominiations! Once more it can safely be said: this is truly World Class in Basel! There may be no other singer carrying on, preserving and developing the Southern Soul-Blues Tradition of Otis Redding and O.V. Wright as convincingly and successfully as John Németh. Born in 1976 in Adaho, long and solidly established on the West Coast, Németh has been living and working in Memphis (Tennesee), the blues world's true capital, for some years already. His last album 'Feelin' Freaky' and the award-winning 'Memphis Grease' are deeply rooted in the classic Memphis sould of the 1960s.
