The blues world recognized his talent by giving him the Blues Music Award for Contemporary Blues - Male Artist of the Year in 2001. His last release, 2003's Rock 'N' Roll City, was nominated for a Grammy Award. Now he's back with his very first Alligator CD, the aptly titled WEST SIDE STRUT. "Joyous rave-ups...Clearwater testifies with stunning soul fervor and a powerful guitar. One of the blues' finest songwriters" - Blues Revue "With his powerful left-handed guitar playing, unique hybrid of West Side blues, relentless rockabilly and high energy performances, Eddy "The Chief" is Chicago's premier blues showman." - Chicago Tribune "Clearwater is equally adept at Chuck Berry-style guitar as he is at deeper blues style. He's a fine singer who puts on a wild, exciting show...the sort of exuberant entertainer who can turn a concert into a party." - New York Times "A focused mixture of T-Bone Walker cool and distinctly Chicago riffage...uncanny grooves... satisfying, funky." - Billboard 847-452-6469 | | |
