# Event Details - **Event Name**: Chris Cain: Blues Guitar Classic and Legendary Virtuoso - **Event Start and End Date**: Mon, 23 Feb, 2026 at 08:00 pm – Mon, 23 Feb, 2026 at 10:00 pm - **Event Description**: Sophisticated blues, jazz, funk, and soul from a classic soulful blues guitar virtuoso! Even B.B. King's a fan!About this EventChris Cain was born in San Jose, California in 1955. His parents were huge music fans and shared their love of blues, jazz and popular songs with Chris. His African American father and Greek mother had a huge, shared record collection, which fascinated Chris from an early age. Chris was three years old when his father first took him to see B.B. King. His father gave him his first guitar at age eight and Chris learned lick after lick, song after song. He’d listen to his father’s records over and over until the music had seeped into his soul.Cain formed his first band in 1986, and, in hopes of getting more gigs, released his first album, Late Night City Blues, on the locally-based Blue Rock’It label. Almost immediately, everything changed. Booking agents came calling and Chris began touring Europe. The album received four W.C. Handy Award nominations (now the Blues Music Awards) and the offers to perform kept rolling in.With his 2021 Alligator Records debut album, Raisin’ Cain, Cain’s star began to rise even higher. Press, radio and the public all agreed that Cain was, as Blues Rock Review stated, “a classic, sophisticated, soulful virtuoso…He seamlessly combines blues, jazz, funk, and soul.” Cain received four 2022 Blues Music Award nominations, including for Album Of The Year and Best Guitarist.On his recordings and on stage, Cain plays his beloved Gibson ES 335 guitar named Melba that he’s had since 1990, and plugs it into his equally beloved Music Man RD 112 amp that he’s had since 1987. Melba, well known among Cain’s most ardent fans, is prominently featured in the new book, Gibson ES Believers, part of the Vic DuPra Believers Series.Cain has toured all over North America and made repeated trips around the world. He’s performed at the Chicago Blues Festival, The Doheny Blues Festival, The Philadelphia Blues Festival, The Waterfront Blues Festival in Portland, and many others. He’s played concerts and festivals (and often taught workshops) in Argentina, Uruguay, Italy, Spain, France, Belgium, The Netherlands, Sweden, Norway, Switzerland, Australia, New Zealand, Russia, Ukraine, and more.Now, with Good Intentions Gone Bad, Cain will find his largest audience yet, as his good musical intentions continue to pay off. According to Kid Andersen, there’s no better blues player working today. “Chris Cain is the rarity whose blues prowess is so undeniable that he has gained everyone’s approval. Ask any of your favorite guitar players who they think are the greatest living masters of the instrument, chances are they will all have Chris Cain at the very top of their list.”https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d7Fh5FdRLwAAgenda?: 07:00 PM - 08:00 PMDOORS?: 08:00 PM - 10:00 PMSHOW - **Event URL**: https://allevents.in/hagerstown/chris-cain-blues-guitar-classic-and-legendary-virtuoso/100001977775840780 - **Event Categories**: music, entertainment, festivals, concerts, workshops, live-music, jazz - **Interested Audience**: - total_interested_count: 0 ## Ticket Details - **Ticket Price Range**: min: 27, max: 27, currency: USD ## Event venue details - **city**: Hagerstown - **state**: MD - **country**: United States - **location**: Live At Hub City Vinyl - **lat**: 39.6390256 - **long**: -77.7212725 - **full address**: Live At Hub City Vinyl, 28 East Baltimore Street, Hagerstown, United States ## Event gallery - **Alt text**: Chris Cain: Blues Guitar Classic and Legendary Virtuoso - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events8/banners/6dce9db483b8817997e94b43d6d07eeb128d4ae2793b954ff754950d39d7f5ea-rimg-w1200-h600-dc010102-gmir.jpg?v=1765674244 ## FAQs - **Q**: When and where is Chris Cain: Blues Guitar Classic and Legendary Virtuoso being held? - **A:** Chris Cain: Blues Guitar Classic and Legendary Virtuoso takes place on Mon, 23 Feb, 2026 at 08:00 pm to Mon, 23 Feb, 2026 at 10:00 pm at Live At Hub City Vinyl, 28 East Baltimore Street, Hagerstown, United States. - **Q**: How much do tickets cost for Chris Cain: Blues Guitar Classic and Legendary Virtuoso? - **A:** Tickets for Chris Cain: Blues Guitar Classic and Legendary Virtuoso are priced at USD 27 per person.
