Corky Siegel Concert Rescheduled To May 3

Corky Siegel. Submitted.

Blues harmonica-player and pianist Corky Siegel will take the stage at the Kress Pavilion May 3, 7 pm, as part of Village of Egg Harbor’s Art of Music winter concert series.

Siegel was scheduled to perform earlier this year on Jan. 12, but a snow storm prevented him from doing so.

A co-founder of the Siegel-Schwall Band, Siegel started performing in 1965 and hasn’t slowed his roll since. After learning his craft from first-generation blues artists like Muddy Waters, Howlin’ Wolf and Willie Dixon, Siegel went on to record with labels like RCA Records, Vanguard Records and Deutsche Grammophon, later being inducted into the Chicago Blues Hall of Fame. His close associations with the early blues masters make him a pivotal, though inconspicuous, part of modern music history. 

Tickets are $15/person. They can be purchased at the door, but reservations are recommended at kresspavilion.org/winterconcertseries. For more information, call 920.493.5979.

The Kress Pavilion is located at 7845 Church St. in Egg Harbor.
