Full live concert captured on 4 August 2023 on the stage of the Megève Blues Festival in the French Alps. New York guitarist and singer Popa Chubby (Ted Horowitz), an imposing figure of contemporary American blues rock, unleashes his thick, saturated guitar playing, inherited as much from Jimi Hendrix as from the masters of Chicago blues. Over nearly two hours, this full concert alternates muscular electric blues, intense ballads and reworked covers, carried by the artist’s gravelly tone and generous stage presence. A regular on European stages, Popa Chubby delivers a performance at Megève that is representative of his art: powerful riffs, incandescent solos and a sense of groove inherited from funk and rock. For the blues enthusiast, this capture offers an authentic live concert, filmed in the intimate Alpine setting of a festival renowned for its demanding programming. A fine opportunity to discover or rediscover one of the last great ambassadors of blues rock, in full command of his powers, before a won-over crowd.
