Theo Huff performed at Daley Plaza in downtown Chicago as part of a series of FREE Chicago Blues Festival preview events. The Blues Festival preview events are a nice way to get a taste of some of Chicago's talented Blues bands and performers prior to the start of the Chicago Blues Festival. The events are generally held in smaller venues in the city of Chicago. Preview events have a laid back, family reunion feel to them. My wife and I enjoy going to the Blues Festival preview events every year. Click on any small image below to see a larger version.
Theo Huff grew up on the west side of Chicago. He is a singer, bandleader and occasionally works with Chicago's Black Ensemble Theater. Theo is good at connecting with his audience. He gets audience members involved during his performances by having people come up on stage or through playful banter during his strolls through the audience area. Theo is fun to watch and he does a great job making everyone feel welcome. Theo and his talented band have a sound, look and feel unique to Chicago! Buy Theo Huffs album The New Beginning from Amazon.com.
