In 2002 Chef
Chris and his band (The Nairobi Trio) won the prestigious International Blues Challenge in Memphis TN., and were
named “The Best Unsigned Blues Band in the World.” Other accolades include winning the Detroit Battle of
the Blues Bands, Named by Billboard magazine & Discmakers as a top 10 independent artist. (2003) Nominated for several
Detroit Music Awards. The MUSIC has
been described as swampy, eerie, and quirky it's unique and fresh, yet retains the feel of yesteryears best.
The Chefs genius is story telling many of his originals are based on true life events like “You’re going to jail
and your car is too” (the title says it all) or “Crawfish Gumbo” a swampy cajun groove about the Herculean task of first preparing, and later eating Gumbo with his
women! This is a
band with chops to spare and a suitcase full clever originals and covers they take songs like Johnny Cash's "Folsom Prison
Blues" and the Rolling Stones' "Sympathy For The Devil" and turn them into something entirely new and infinitely cool, hip
and funky. If their version of Junior Wells' "Early In The Morning" doesn't give you the Blues, you've never loved and lost.
Chef Chris’
motto is “specializing in carefully contrived spontaneity”. That should give you a good feel for what he’s
all about. Doesn’t take himself too seriously, but definitely plays some serious heavy blues. This is some good stuff.
Have ‘em do his thing live in your room and witness the full effect!
