@zenith2070 I've been playing in Black bands for many many years. Chitlin circuit is all but gone and most younger African American brothers don't care for the blues. They consider it square and corny. I will say that a few are keeping it modern and interesting though... check out The Soul of John Black for one... But I hear what you are saying. The community has, for the most part, become something else. Besides, Chris Cain is half black and half Greek and all good. :)
@redshark1105 It is one of those deals where first he would do an instrumental and you'd likely think...well maybe he can't sing...lol. And then blammo... you just start crying. ;) But seriously, you follow this kind of act by not trying to be that kind of act. That's what pros know. ;Music isn't sports... imho.
Besides being so funny and down-to-earth and a mind-boggling and astoundingly good singer and guitar player, I have never seen a guy who loves playing so much. Long Live Chris Cain !
Chris fucking RULES!! But, I hate when he plays with this keyboard player , Dave Mathews, this cat is the fucking KING of over playing.. DUDE!!! people are there to see Chris, not you. word
Nice mixture of Blues, Jazz, Rock and other stuff coming together to form one great sound!

It amazing me that Chris has never gotten a BMA nom or Grammy nom for that matter. He is that good! Smokin!!!

Not too many blues bands can quote Yellow Jackets tunes!
Listen for the quotes in Dave and Steve's solos!

LOVE Chris he's my favorite! I have to say I was disappointed when I saw him with Dave also. It was like his music got lost.

@crobacon - Chris wouldn't have him playing with him if HE thought Dave was "overplaying"......think about it.
