12th July to August 30th
Theatre of the No, Athens' first English-speaking theater, proudly presents BLUES CARGO for a series of 8 exclusive live performances. Starting Friday, July 12th at 22:30. The most authentic Chicago Blues Band of the Greek scene, after 37 years of continuous presence, remaining true to their beloved genre will take the audience on an unforgettable musical journey, featuring Chicago-Funky-Soul-Blues Standards and original compositions from their acclaimed albums, including "Delayed Delivery" (2009), praised by "BLUES Magazine," a leading American publication.
BLUES CARGO formed in Athens in 1987, achieving a level of authenticity in the Chicago blues sound that rivals many bands from Chicago itself.

The band has accompanied great musicians such as Guitar Shorty, U.P Wilson, Louisiana Red, Lurrie Bell, Big Time Sarah, Eddie C. Campbell, Lefty Dizz, Angela Brown, Lovie Lee, Byther Smith, Jean Carroll, Maxine Howard, Blind Mississippi Morris, Sweet Betty, Jimmy Morello, Nellie Tiger Travis, Jolly Jumper and Big Moe, Michael Dotson, Janice Harrington, and Matthew Skoller.
