A good-time romp. . . . Raucous blues with high-energy soloing, mixtures of careening slide and razor-edged bursts, all delivered with unflagging enthusiasm and wit.
—Rolling Stone
Rousing, down-home, feel-good music, . . . spunky rhythms, and razor-sharp slide. . . . Bishop’s a superb guitarist of great strength and skill. . . . A rockin’ good time.
—Guitar World
Elvin Bishop’s Big Fun Trio has wonderful chemistry and are a joy to hear.
—Living Blues
Although Elvin Bishop has been performing his rollicking brand of electrified front porch blues for over 50 years (his first professional gig was as guitarist for Junior Wells’s band in 1962), he is as vital and creative an artist today as he was when he first hit the national scene in 1965 with the Paul Butterfield Blues Band. He is still as slyly good-humored and crowd-pleasing as he was when he was creating solo hits during the 1970s. With his buoyant and deceptively loose-sounding ensemble behind him, he’s also playing some of the most spirited and distinctive blues slide guitar today.
Late in 2015, Elvin Bishop formed the Big Fun Trio, with Bishop on guitar and vocals, and his friends Bob Welsh on piano and guitar and Willy Jordan on cajón and vocals. After playing just a handful of live dates, the group’s music and undeniable chemistry took the blues world by storm.
