Victoria-based Big Hank & The Blue Hearts features the formidable talents of vocalist Big Hank Lionhart (real name Henry Clarence Leonhardt) and guitarist Mark "Westcoast" Comerford, both co-founders of the RCA-signed Uncle Wiggly's Hot Shoes Blues Band. The duo, who have been playing together for over 40 years, represented British Columbia at the International Blues Challenge in Memphis in both 2016 and 2019, reaching the semi-finals. Their sound is a celebration of traditional blues, delivered with seasoned musicianship and a lively, uptempo feel. Expect a night of soulful storytelling and expert improvisation.
