“Electrifying, raucous, pure Chicago blues … Lil’ Ed is a guitarist extraordinaire … slashing slide and flamboyant stage persona.” – Chicago Tribune

“Lil’ Ed & The Blues Imperials are the hottest purveyors of bottleneck boogie to come out of Chicago since Hound Dog Taylor.” – The Chicago Sun-Times

In Chicago, a city overflowing with unrivaled blues talent, world-renowned Lil’ Ed & The Blues Imperials have been standing tall for almost 30 years. The band’s big sound, fueled by Lil’ Ed’s gloriously rollicking slide work and deep blues string bending, along with his rough-edged, soulful vocals, is as real and hard-hitting as Chicago blues gets.

“Raw-boned, old-fashioned Chicago blues has a new young master – Lil’ Ed Williams.” – The New York Times
