Eric Gales & Diunna Greanleaf- Houston Jazz Collective

Please join us for a ticketed show with Eric Gales and Diunna Greenleaf, hosted by the Houston Jazz Collective!!!

Eric Gales:
As both an African American left-handed guitarist of extraordinary ability and an expressive vocalist, it is natural for people to compare Eric Gales to Hendrix. But Gales has developed a unique hybrid blues/rock sound that also draws upon influences as diverse as Albert King and Frank Gambale. A unique amalgam of styles, Eric Gales stands head and shoulders among other guitarists in his genre.

Diunna Greenleaf:
Diunna Greenleaf, the leader of Blue Mercy, is a native Texan (Houston) who has a background steeped in gospel music. Influenced by the likes of Koko Taylor, Aretha Franklin, Rosetta Thorpe, Sam Cooke, Charles Brown and her own parents Ben & Mary Ella Greenleaf (Gospel) she has developed “Diunna’s style of Blues” in the same tradition as so many other great Texas blues men and women. She combines intricate patches of jazz, gospel and heartfelt soul to create a kind blues that takes one on an emotional roller coaster ride
