It soon became clear that this embarrassment of blues riches was the start of their next project.Set for release on August 28, 2026, Antones 50th Presents Chicago Bound: Honoring Muddy, Cliff \u0026amp; Blue (Blues Till 2 Recording Co. \/ Select-O-Hits) caps the club’s 50th anniversary celebration while pointing toward its future. The album cover shows a lively, Chicago-bound tour bus packed with musicians racing to the next gig, illustrated by longtime club illustrator Diana Ray. Fittingly, album co-producer Zach Ernst conceived the project the night John Primer recorded a duo version of Jimmy Rogers’s classic “Chicago Bound.” As Ernst explains: “Beyond the song’s deeper meaning—the journey through music cities by African-American artists seeking a better life and better pay than they could find in the South at the time—a ‘road trip record’ or ‘truck stop cassette’ felt like a creative way for Antone’s to honor the great musicians who live on the road. It also traces a spiritual route from central Louisiana, home of Clifton Chenier’s music, through Houston, Austin, Memphis, and on to Chicago.”\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eLive-to-tape recordings produced by Jacob Sciba and Zach Ernst include tracks by blues heavyweights John Primer, Doyle Bramhall II, Kim Wilson \u0026amp; the Fabulous Thunderbirds, Anson Funderburgh, Lurrie Bell, and Lavelle White. Other highlights feature a Bobby Bland classic cut in Memphis by powerhouse Houston vocalist Kam Franklin and backed by Bobby’s son and drummer Rodd Bland, and a Clifton Chenier deep cut led by Louisiana torchbearers Ivan Neville and CC Adcock with Keith Richards and Ronnie Wood, featuring Jimmie Vaughan on harmonica. A walloping shuffle in the works since the Rolling Stones contributed to the LP A Tribute to the King of Zydeco last year, the song was made complete by Jimmie Vaughan’s ace harmonica playing, a secret weapon that Austin’s reigning king of the Stratocaster has kept close to the vest for most of his professional career.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eThe breadth of talent found across the album’s ten songs is a testament to the enduring legacy of Austin’s Home of the Blues and its beloved founder Clifford Antone, who passed away in June of 2006.\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eANTONE'S 50TH: CHICAGO BOUND - HONORING \/ VARIOUS ARTISTS\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eChicago Bound - John Primer\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOne Step at a Time - Ivan Neville ; CC Adcock Feat.
