Since its opening in June of ‘89, Buddy Guy's Legends has built a reputation as the nation's premier blues club. Mr. Guy's personal reputation as the crowned king of Chicago's electric blues scene and his 40+ years in the music business have made Buddy truly a legend himself. In the seventeen years that Legends has been open, the stage has been graced by some of the world's most talented musicians: Van Morrison,Willie Dixon, Albert Collins, Bo Diddley, The Rolling Stones, The Black Crowes, Dr. John, Lou Rawls, David Bowie, ZZ Top, Junior Wells, Slash, John Mayer, Stevie Ray Vaughan, Greg Allman, and The Pointer Sisters to name a few. Buddy Guy himself takes the stage every January, selling out over a dozen shows (18 this year!) and delighting crowds that have traveled from all over the world. There is only one place in Chicago to experience the finest in blues seven nights a week, enjoy southern Cajun soul food and behold a major archive of blues memorabilia. That place is Buddy Guy's Legends. Voted "Best Blues Club" several times over by Living Blues Magazine,Citysearch, and AOL, Legends continues to be a mecca for blues.
