Bobby Harden With Off Da Hook
About This Event
Bobby Harden, whom Stax legend Eddie Floyd singled out after Harden joined the Blues Brothers Band in 2012, brings a soul-influenced voice to Arthur’s Tavern. He is billed with Off Da Hook, a group tied to the venue and to jazz/free-improvisation whose loose, quick-to-respond approach favors improvisation over fixed arrangements in the late-night club setting.
