Popa chubby and his band are great musicians. The show was just right with a good mix of songs and styles. I am glad I got to see this band.

We saw Popa Chubby at B B King's in NYC earlier this week. This artist takes Blues to a completely new level. He and his band attack the genre with a degree of intensity that's well beyond a typical blues guitar act. His style weaves in elements of greats like Stevie Ray Vaughn, Roy Buchanan, and Jimi Hendrix. If you are a fan of the blues Popa Chubby is a must see.

I was turned on to Popa Chubby a few years back, but had never seen him and the band live until now. What a fantastic show. Popa and he band were way talented and can really play and entertain the crowd. All we talking with the crowd while on breaks and at the end of the show, just the way it should be. I will be back next time they are in town.

Lil' Ed & the Blues Imperials are the Best Blues Band out there. You don't have anyone today that plays any better than this. I have been following this band for many years and they NEVER disappoint. Also, the sound system at Showcase Live is phenominal! Loved it! Bring them back to Massachusetts - please!

Excellent evening of guitar. Coco was brilliant and Popa was a freight train of rock and blues. Loved it all.

First time at the venue for me. It was a great place to see a show. I just found Popa Chubby within the past year and I have been enjoying his tunes ever since. When I walked in Popa was sitting there at the door greeting everyone that walked in and was ready to take a picture with anyone who asked. A sign of an artist that truly appreciates his fans if you ask me. He broke out a few older tunes for us and the energy it created in the crowd was both electrifying and magical. A look around the room reviled people with closed eyes singing along and dancing in their chairs like they have been transported to another place. Perhaps a place where the Blues side of Rock and Roll had not quite made its separation and met up with the Country side of Rock and Roll. If you are looking for those tunes when Rock and Roll was young and still trying to find its way and before it got lost back in the early 80’s then you would do yourself well to check out Popa Chubby. When Radio stations stop dicking around start playing music again I hope they find Popa. He just makes it all right with the world again.
