Jack Fishback is bringing the Blues and Boogie Woogie piano to The Screen Door Room stage! "God gave me a talent, and I'm here to use it!"
A prodigious student of Chess and Sun Records, Jack has been emulating Johnnie Johnson and Jerry Lee Lewis since the age of ten, Jack Fishback plays with rare fidelity to a wild country blues style while weaving his own interpretations and improvisations into his original compositions and covers. Only 18 years of age, he has played every venue and street corner in his hometown of Columbia, Kentucky. He's taking his keyboard on the road to meet new people and share his style of playing with audiences that can still remember the Sun Record Label and those who will encounter the blues for the first time through the talents of this extraordinary young artist.
Grab your seat when the doors open at 6 pm.
