ONE NIGHT ONLY! From Clarksdale, Mississippi, Super Chikan, born James Louis Johnson is known for his good-humored blues with a funky touch. As an instrumentalist, he's distinguished by his equipment - the "Chicantars" are constructed with flattened gas can bodies.

The evening will start at 6 pm with a screening of the documentary James 'Super Chikan' Johnson - A Life in Blues and followed by live performance at 7 pm. Super Chikan will be performing with Vancouver's' Mojo All-Stars.

Don't miss this rare opportunity to experience some authentic Delta Blues with Super Chikan. Regular and VIP tickets available online HERE or sold at the door at the Sunday Blues Jam at the Queens prior to the show.
