Memphis Lightning
We're Memphis Lightning and we bring our own brand of ol' school Rock
& Roll and down and dirty Blues to a juke joint near you. Memphis
Lightning was born out of tradition with a pedigree second to none. Having
played with the Blues Legend Eddie "Blues Man" Kirkland, Memphis
Lightning are the real deal. Their energetic performances will bring you
back to the days when the Juke joints were rocking and the Blues was
King. So bring a friend, roll back the rug and get on the floor....Memphis
Lightning is in the House.
At 12 years old Darren "Lil Bluesman" Thiboutot was riding shotgun and
playing ol' school, rock solid, tasty guitar on stage with the late Great Blues
Legend Eddie Kirkland, and Buddy Guy. Now he is 18 and is the youngest
member to fly the funky skies, with Memphis Lightning. Last year he was
also selected by The Maine Blues Society to represent the state of Maine in
the International Blues Challenge Youth Show Case. He is currently
endorsed by WB Gear and Intune Guitar Picks.
