Tribute to Robert Johnson

0 upcoming performances in New York

“Tribute to Robert Johnson” at Iridium frames the blues legacy of Robert Johnson through a Rock/Pop lens, with guitarist Kerry Kearney as a featured performer. Presented as a live set in New York City, it treats Johnson less as a distant myth and more as a working repertoire that still circulates through clubs and amplifiers. Johnson’s songs have long functioned as source material for modern guitar music, and hearing them addressed directly in Manhattan underlines that lineage. The best moments are likely to be the ones that resist imitation and show how influence actually travels.
