# Event Details - **Event Name**: Elvin Bishop Trio - **Event Start and End Date**: Wed, 19 Aug, 2026 at 07:30 pm (-04:00) - **Event Description**: 8-19-2026 "Rousing, down-home, feel-good music...spunky rhythms and razor-sharp slide...Bishop's a superb guitarist of great strength and skill...a rockin' good time." – Guitar World Legendary blues guitarist and singer Elvin Bishop brings his trademark humor, soulful vocals, and electrifying slide guitar to his new album "Can’t Even Do Wrong Right." Fueled by his stellar road band and joined by longtime friends including Mickey Thomas and Grammy winner Charlie Musselwhite, Bishop delivers a mix of originals, blues classics, and feel-good grooves packed with energy and wit. With his buoyant and deceptively loose-sounding ensemble behind him, he’s also playing some of the most spirited and distinctive blues slide guitar today. Although Bishop has been performing his rollicking brand of electrified front porch blues for over 50 years (his first professional gig was as guitarist for Junior Wells’ band in 1962), he is as vital and creative an artist today as he was when he first hit the national scene in 1965 with The Paul Butterfield Blues Band. He is still as slyly good-humored and instantly crowd-pleasing as he was when he was effortlessly creating solo hits during the 1970s. His guitar playing seems to improve with every performance, and his songwriting is filled with clever revelations and homespun wisdom. Living Blues says Elvin's guitar playing is "as full of fresh licks and unbounded energy as the day he and Mike Bloomfield set the blues/rock world on its ear." The Rolling Stone Record Guide says that Bishop, along with Bloomfield, recorded “brilliant guitar passages that did as much as anything to establish the mystique and heroism of modern rock guitarists.” After The Butterfield Blues Band, Bishop moved to San Francisco and became a regular at the famed Fillmore Auditorium jam sessions, playing alongside Jimi Hendrix, Eric Clapton, B.B. King and many others before embarking on a very successful solo career that included the hit song "Fooled Around and Fell in Love." Through the years his music has appeared in film and television, including the 1997 use of "She puts Me In The Mood" (from Big Fun) in Quentin Tarantino’s Jackie Brown. In 2005 he performed on the internationally televised Grammy Awards broadcast alongside Keith Urban, Tim McGraw, Gretchen Wilson, Lynyrd Skynyrd and Allman Brothers’ guitarist Dickey Betts. He recently appeared in the documentary "Born In Chicago." In 2012 and 2013 he was nominated for inclusion into the Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame as a member of The Paul Butterfield Blues Band. The Chicago Tribune says Bishop plays “good-time music guaranteed to put a smile on your face...serious playing, potent slide guitar and razor-sharp licks.” Musically, it’s as if Elvin Bishop can do no wrong, and that is perfectly all right. - **Event URL**: https://allevents.in/shirley/elvin-bishop-trio/200030347284405 - **Event Categories**: music, entertainment, performances, art - **Interested Audience**: - total_interested_count: 46 ## Ticket Details ## Event venue details - **city**: Shirley - **state**: MA - **country**: United States - **location**: 215 GREAT ROAD, Shirley, MA, United States, Massachusetts 01464 - **lat**: 42.58445 - **long**: -71.64635 - **full address**: 215 GREAT ROAD, Shirley, MA, United States, Massachusetts 01464 ## Event gallery - **Alt text**: Elvin Bishop Trio - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events3/banners/958b23b887bc189f6bb97456afb32c71863bcace9e514a2468f29e26865f5c05-rimg-w650-h350-dc080808-gmir?v=1786948167 ## FAQs - **Q**: When and where is Elvin Bishop Trio being held? - **A:** Elvin Bishop Trio takes place on Wed, 19 Aug, 2026 at 07:30 pm to Wed, 19 Aug, 2026 at 07:30 pm at 215 GREAT ROAD, Shirley, MA, United States, Massachusetts 01464. - **Q**: Who is organizing Elvin Bishop Trio? - **A:** Elvin Bishop Trio is organized by The Bull Run Restaurant. - **Q**: Who is this event for?
