Lady Dottie and the Diamonds With Rey Wolf at Lou Lou’s Jungle Room

REYWOLF – 8PM: The 21st century crooner tight ropes Swamp Blues and Jazz Noir. The avant-garde show hyper activates your eyes and ears. El Rey’s vocals capture the allure of early Hollywood crooners, the vulnerability of Roy Orbison, and the raw power of Howlin’ Wolf. Like a David Lynch film, the juxtaposition between El Rey’s dark ballads and the light of romance can feel familiar, but always carries with it a more complex undertow waiting to pull you in. REY WOLF consists of both original compositions and obscure songs from the 30’s and 40’s.
LADY DOTTIE & THE DIAMONDS – 10PM: “A local treasure in San Diego”, Lady Dottie & The Diamonds are classic Blues group, featuring Lady Dottie, a soulful lead singer (Dorothy Mae Whitsett). She was raised in Alabama, with early gospel choir influences and now sounds like something between Iggy Pop and Etta James.
