Minnesota’s January freeze is about to thaw out a bit so why not enjoy the evening with some delta blues from The Brothers Curtis Delta Duet which will be playing the 331 Club [Map It] in Minneapolis at 7:00 PM  tonight. Better yet, while you are driving to the club in the 5′o clock hour why not tune into KFAI House Party (90.3/106.7 FM) with Hurricane Harold and catch the band performing live in studio. If you find yourself sitting in front of the computer at that time you can also tune in live by clicking on the “Listen Now” linke on the KFAI House Party page.

Curtis Blake (harmonica) and Curtis Marlatt (guitar, drums and vocals) perform the old school stripped down Delta Blues. They are the 2008 Minnesota Blues Champions in the solo/duo category and performed at the International Blues Challenge in February or 2009.

“Curtis Blake quickly became an ‘in-demand’ player. His harp work was a major reason for Sonny Rodgers and The Cat Scratchers winning the W. C. Handy Award in 1991. Curtis is a featured artist at the annual “Blues Harmonica Extravaganza” at the Whiskey Junction in Minneapolis. He has also performed at the Chicago Blues Festival and Kingston Mines with Jimmy Johnson; and as featured artist with Charlie Love and The Reverand Raven. Curtis’ discography includes recording sessions with Percy Strother, Bobby Johnson, Lady Blue and Mojo Buford.”

since rediscovering his roots (he played accoustic Delta Blues when starting off playing guitar) with his band, Curtis And The Kicks, 22 years ago, out of Louisville, Kentucky, Curtis has performed many concerts, Blues clubs, and Blues festivals with many names in the genre. Blues greats such as Albert King, Gatemouth Brown, Albert Collins, Buddy Guy, Elvin Bishop, Savoy Brown, Junior Wells, Lucky Peterson, Joe Louis Walker, Robert Cray, Anson Funderberg, Sam Meyer, Rod Piazza & The Flyers, Carey Bell, The Paladins, Billy Boy Arnold, Robin Trower, Mick Taylor, and many more.
