Pappy Johns Blues Band - Waltz (Nov. 28, 2009)

If you can't see the videos below, click here

Shortly after winning the Canadian Aboriginal Music Award for best Blues album, the Pappy Johns Blues Band played Waltz.

First, the opening group, the Retrofit Blues Band, played a few numbers . . .

Joshua Miller (singer/guitarist for Pappy Johns) joined them for a few songs as well.

Then the main attraction rocked the place . . .

Keyboardist/singer, John Lee was in a dark bar, wearing black, next to a black background so you may have to take our word for it that he was singing on this song :)
