THANKS AGAIN to those of you who joined us to pack the house at Nighttown!  What a fun night!

Many thanks to Fatima Family Center and the 40+ students,( 9-12 years old) we taught guitar and ukulele to during their 8 week summer program.  I was proud to work there with the other teaching artists through Roots of American Music, (ROAM).

In honor of the 50th Anniversary of Woodstock, I’ll be playing two shows with NITEBRIDGE  next week, both at Music Box Supper Club: a Woodstock evening show on Friday 8/16 and a Woodstock Brunch on 8/11 at noon….followed by …
SAM HOOPER GROUP’S 4:20pm Set at the FREE  OPIOID AWARENESS MUSIC FESTIVAL, Sunday, 8/11, in Kent at Hometown Bank Plaza!!  The Festival is noon to 9pm with 8 great bands. Please join us to help bring awareness to this great cause and help save lives!

We are so excited that SAM HOOPER GROUP is opening for international blues star, COCO MONTOYA at Beachland Ballroom TONIGHT!!  Coco played guitar with the legendary John Mayall’s Bluesbreakers for 10 years.  This will be a very special evening, so please join us:

Hi and hope you’re enjoying the warmer weather of Spring!

Boston was a blast last month!  It was so great to see so many old frends at the shows and to be able to make new fans and friends too.

As you can see on the Shows page, we’ve got a lot of great shows coming up.

Please take special note of our church’s 4TH ANNUAL BENEFIT CONCERT – DINNER/DANCE  on Friday June 7th at Tizzano’s Party Center in Euclid.  This event has grown every year and has become too big to have at the church itself.  So we’re expanding and making it even more fun with room to dance!  I’ll be playing guitar with Nitebridge for this show and we’ll also have a DJ, so prepare for a fun evening.  You can buy your tickets directly from me or any member of our Men’s Club, The Men of Zion at St. James AME Church.

Sam Hooper Group debuts at Larchmere Porchfest this year on June 15th.  Stay tuned for time and porch.

I’m also excited to be bringing Sam Hooper Group back to Nighttown on July 13th!  Please see me or other band members for advance tickets.

Happy Spring!
