Dawkins encouraged Nick to unleash his fire and passion. From there, Moss was chosen by Willie \u201cBig Eyes\u201d Smith to join his Legendary Blues Band, but Smith insisted Moss switch to guitar. Blues icon Jimmy Rogers hired Moss as his touring guitarist, mentoring him on the blues lifestyle along the way. Today, Moss\u2019 blistering fretwork, impassioned, soul-charged vocals and memorable original songs place him in a league of his own.<\/p>\n<p>Gruenling, Moss\u2019 friend of over 20 years, is considered among today\u2019s most innovative and creative blues harmonica players. His high-energy, full-throttle reed work has earned him comparisons to many of the greats, including the late James Cotton. A self-taught player and a natural entertainer with seven solo albums and numerous guest appearances to his credit, Gruenling\u2019s giant, fat-toned harp work, raw-boned singing and untamed energy are a perfect foil for Moss\u2019 inspired guitar playing and straight-from-the-shoulder blues vocals.<\/p>\n<p>Bilheimer Capitol Theatre<\/p>\n<p>The Wood Brothers<\/p>\n<p>CLEARWATER \u2014 The Wood Brothers will perform on Wednesday, Feb. 4, 8 p.m., at the Bilheimer Capitol Theatre, 405 Cleveland St., Clearwater.<\/p>\n<p>Tickets start at $44.50.

A true collaborative effort between its three members, its 11 tracks weave a medley of musical ideas ranging from Latin-inflected acoustic guitar lines to driving post-jazz rhythms to infectious sing-along choruses, resulting in a cohesive, joyful whole. All of it comes with The Wood Brothers\u2019 trademark turns of phrase and lighthearted yet subversively profound wisdom at the core.<\/p>\n<p>Closing in on two decades since the release of their debut album \u201cWays Not to Lose\u201d in 2006, The Wood Brothers show no signs of slowing down, offering a prolific flow of creative output alongside a zealous commitment to bring their electrifying live performances to fans across North America and Europe.
