MEMPHIS LIGHTNING RETURNS TO THE HILL ARTS!

The Personal Obsession Tour rolls back into Portland this fall and Memphis Lightning is bringing the fire.

A Sweettone Recording Artist and international touring act, Memphis Lightning delivers a high-energy mix of blues, rock & roll, roots, and old-school showmanship. A powerhouse guitarist, Lightning has drawn comparisons to Danny Gatton, Roy Buchanan, and Link Wray, with the stage presence of Mick Jagger and David Bowie.

Before he was even 21, Lightning had already shared the stage with legends including Eddie Kirkland, Buddy Guy, Tab Benoit, Big Sandy, Bill Kirchen, Sean Mencher, and more. A cancer survivor and lifelong performer, he doesn’t just play the blues - he’s lived them.

THE BAND

Blazing guitar, swagger, soul, and serious showmanship.

Grammy-nominated international touring and recording artist whose credits include Pinetop Perkins, Tab Benoit, Sonny Landreth, G.E. Smith, Lazy Lester, Kenny Neal and many more.

“Mr. Mayhem” Rick Curran - Keys

Screaming organ, deep soul, and enough power to shake the room.
