Before the Grammy nominations and Blues Music Awards piled up, Victor Wainwright was already turning heads on the LRBC stage. Piano players aren’t supposed to bring this much firepower, but Victor has never really followed the rules. (you should've seen his cooking demonstration on #44)�

In October 2012, LRBC GOAT Ronnie Baker Brooks brought Chicago blues straight to open water. Son of blues icon Lonnie Brooks, Ronnie built his own reputation with explosive live sets that never really stay confined to the stage — as this crowd clearly learned fast.

From discovering Colin James to feeling Southern Avenue light up the ship with their energy, every sailing leaves its mark. Kim from California is heading into her third Blues Cruise, and like so many repeat offenders, she already gets it. The music pulls you in, the people keep you coming back, and every cruise delivers another artist you can’t stop talking about.

R&B AND SOUL ICON CLARENCE CARTER PASSES AWAY AT 90

Clarence never sailed on the LRBC. He made some great records: Slip Away and the humorous Strokin'! Rest in Power to the Doctor of Soul.

c/o The Boogie Report:

Legendary soul singer, songwriter, and guitarist Clarence Carter has passed away. He was 90 years old.

The Montgomery, Alabama, native - a giant of the industry and a cornerstone of the Southern Soul and Blues movement - leaves behind an unparalleled legacy. Blind from birth, Carter transformed his personal challenges into a signature sound that bridged the gap between raw blues and polished R&B.

Carter's career, which spanned over six decades, was defined by his storytelling and his unmistakable, soulful delivery. He first gained national prominence with his 1968 classic "Slip Away" and followed it with the gut-wrenching, Grammy-winning ballad "Patches" in 1970.

To a new generation of fans, he became a cultural phenomenon with the 1985 anthem "Strokin’," a staple of Southern Soul radio and Juke Joints across the country.

"Clarence Carter didn't just sing songs; he told the truth about life, love, and the struggle. He was the heart of the Muscle Shoals sound and a true king of Southern Soul."

From the : Much respect to the musicians, the fans, and organizations like The Blues Foundation for continuing to honor, protect, and celebrate blues music and the culture behind it. The legacy is still being written and tonights awards prove it!
