Blues is a genre of music that I love relaxing to at home, and it’s fusion with rock music from Hot Tuna is incredible, and immediately made me want to see them live and hear their exciting and original musical talents displayed live. Their electronic spin on traditional blues tracks is incredible, and the way that they’ve revitalised and modernised traditional favourites to keep them current is incredible. Although the group was started originally as a side project by Jack Cassidy, they’ve achieves much success over the years, and have created some incredible records. The band has seen several line up changes over the years, but fortunately it doesn’t seem to have effected the performance of the remaining members, and if anything, they seem to have improved over the years.
They opened the show with Jorma Kaukonen coming on stage and shouting a welcome into the microphone, before introducing the rest of the band, who then launched straight into Yellow Fever. It’s incredible how they change the instruments that are required for each track, as over the years they’ve lost a harmonica, and violin, and gained a mandolin, just to name a couple. This versatility to make any of their tracks work really demonstrates just how talented they are. The band were great at interacting with the audience, and even took requests for songs.
