Eli Paperboy Reed live at Jimmy's Jazz and Blues Club, Portsmouth on Sun, Sep 27, 7:30 PM. Lineup, start time and tickets on Ckord.
Hailed by Rolling Stone as a provider of "classic soul and horn-heavy R&B soaked with the blues," and dubbed the "king of rhythm & soul" by MOJO, Eli Paperboy Reed is a veteran force in modern roots music. Praised by NPR as "inspired, raw and powerful," Reed has earned critical acclaim, major label deals, and global festival slots over a career spanning nearly two decades. Produced by legendary R&B iconoclast Swamp Dogg, Reed's album Getting There delivers a rich, mature blend of soul, gospel, country, and blues. Recorded live in Brooklyn, the project showcases Reed's soaring vocal attack and sharp songwriting, contemplating life, commitment, and long-term love. Backed by his explosive band, Reed delivers an authentic, high-energy live performance of pure "grown folks music".
