Buddy Guy will play Antone’s for the first time in over two decades on Monday at a special edition of Blue Monday that benefits the Clifford Antone Foundation.
This appearance at Austin’s Home of the Blues represents a major underplay for the Chicago blues guitarist, who last night, performed for thousands at the Moody Theater.
The Rock & Roll Hall of Fame inductee was tight with departed club owner Clifford Antone – as evidenced in this clip from the 2004 documentary Antone’s: Home of the Blues.
There’s only one way to get into Monday’s show – becoming a member of the Clifford Antone Foundation, a music preservation nonprofit aiming to honor the past and invest in the future of the culture. You can join here.
