SARANAC LAKE – Two-time Grammy Award nominee, John Primer and the Real Deal Blues Band comes to Live at BluStage at BluSeed Studios on April 14 at 7 PM.

John Primer was bandleader and lead guitarist for Muddy Waters, Willie Dixon, and Magic Slim & the Teardrops. Primer has developed his own musical style forged by these legends and other great music mentors who have been part of his life journey.

He started playing in Chicago at Maxwell Street, birthplace of the Chicago Blues, and went on to become house bandleader at the famous Theresa’s Lounge for seven years alongside Sammy Lawhorn, Junior Wells, and James Cotton.
