Red, White & Blues: American Guitar Tribute by Jeffrey James

Skip the fireworks crowds and spend Independence Day where the real fire is — on the fretboard. The Jeffrey James Trio takes the stage at Biscuits & Blues for a live set honoring the legends of American guitar: Jimi Hendrix, B.B. King, Stevie Ray Vaughan, Muddy Waters, and more. Biscuits & Blues is one of the city’s most reliable rooms for this kind of thing — intimate, loud enough to feel it, and close enough to the stage that you’ll catch every bend and slide. A fitting way to mark the holiday with music that’s genuinely, deeply American.
