Slam Allen

Hurleyville, NY – The Sullivan County Historical Society proudly presents a free talk and musical performance with legendary soul and blues performer Slam Allen on Sunday, August 5, from 2-3 p.m. at the Sullivan County Museum and Cultural Center in Hurleyville.

For over 20 years, Slam Allen has been entertaining audiences with his unique blend of soul and blues. Slam, who lives in Monticello, has spent a lifetime performing, recording and touring the world. For eight years he was the lead singer and guitarist in the renowned James Cotton Band.

American Showplace Music believes that Slam is the most dynamic and original soul and blues artist on the scene today. JB Miller, President of Empire Entertainment, says, “Slam breathes new life into the blues. His music and performances will clearly be fresh for decades to come. For me, Slam Allen is both the roots and the future of the Blues!” For more on Slam, visit www.slamallen.com.

The Sullivan County Americana band Little Sparrow will host the program. This series of music and history performances will continue on the first Sunday of each month at the Sullivan County Museum, 265 Main Street, Hurleyville.

The program is made possible with funding from a Sullivan County Arts and Heritage Grant, funded by the Sullivan County Legislature and administered by the Delaware Valley Arts Alliance. However, donations will be gratefully accepted.
