Saturday February 17 - Mystery Band at the Morseland Cafe

On Saturday February 17, Mr. G and the Mystery Band will be laying down some dinner-time tunes at the Morseland Cafe (1218 W. Morse Avenue, Chicago IL, 773-764-8900, www.morseland.com). Music starts at 7PM . The Morseland is a wonderful venue - great stage and sound system, large dance floor and terrific food! The Mystery Band will have the electric blues/funk line-up at the Morseland, featuring Anthony Palmer on guitar and E.G. McDaniel on bass! And appearing for the first time with the Mystery Band, James Carter on Drums! James is a major talent, supporting many groups around Chicago - he is the drummer with the Jimmy Burns Blues Band right now (working with E.G. McDaniel and Anthony Palmer).

Mini-Review: The Mystery Band kept it pretty mellow for the dinner crowd. James Carter has a very deep trick bag and his tasteful, intuitive drumming kept the Mystery Band very tight. Anthony Palmer, E.G. McDaniel and James Carter are the regular sidemen for Jimmy Burns, the great Chicago guitarist and vocalist. These three guys are totally connected - no missed cues, ever.
