Chris Cain - Swing Wespelaar (BE) - 2017

Chris Cain, truly enjoying himself on the stage at "30 Years Blues for the People" / "Swing Wespelaar 2017"

[@theonemodifier]

Never get tired of his playing.

[@raybede]

Rocking up a storm. Don't laugh but I have just discovered Chris Cain and as you all know already he is the full package, and he smiles at his audience too. Wonderful.

[@majikmoments9933]

I attended San Jose City College when Chris and I were studying music. Chris was always humble and very funny. A living legend

[@samcammack5955]

Pure joy on the guitar- and the nicest guy you could ever meet too!

[@jublaim]

Agree! His chops is a bit like Alvin Lee of Ten Years After but "bluesed down" so you hear his fun runs! Met him 1½ years ago and he's as nice as he plays :-)

[@kj053910]

100%. Met him probably 10 or 15 years ago at a show and he was super nice, loved to interact with fans.

[@mikecoughlin4128]

Never heard of Chris before but love the way he expresses himself through both his guitar and his face!

[@JazzgutsVGvanKampen]

A perfect frasing, double stops, affination with the blues, and great tone , subtely and dynamics too, what else can I say, a joy to listen👍

[@thomasgraben123]

What a talent ! Just discovered Chris. Why isn`t he more famous ?

[@jamesglendenning]

2020 , he's just been signed to Alligator Records , new album in 2021

[@patdorn4436]

First time I saw Chris was @ Larry Blakes in Berkeley. 1986 or so. a fan ever since!

[@albertosilvabrito8377]

Deveria ser mais famoso.... Ele é um artista de ponta.... Noootaaa.... Deeeezzzz...... 😂😂😂

[@jeffroberts_tunes]

People always comment on his guitar playing, and well, um, yeah it's freakin outrageous. But his vocals are so incredibly authentic and powerful; a lot like BB King.

[@DannyBrooks1]

He’s the real deal! He always gives 110%

[@stevehughes1510]

He's one of the better ones out there without a doubt.....just so good!!

[@philodonoghue3062]

The sheer joy of (playing) the Blues

[@TimNelson]

Chris playing his 20-year old Epiphone here! Durable as heck. Go Chris!

[@moonkef]

I just saw that too!! wow. With the right pickups and set up theres nothing wrong with them.Also helps if you're him.

[@jr0706]

@@moonkef I’ve got a modded set of Seymour Duncan 59s in mine. A2 magnets. Killer.

[@fukhue8226]

Saw Chris for the first time just the other day. At first I thought he was trying to Imitate some of the Greats in the Blues. Then I watched a little longer and a little closer and I discovered this. Chris Cain is one of the best! This guy is legit and packin a Loaded Gun when he straps on his guitar. Pure joy in every note he plays and the style of a seasoned pro! I hope I get to meet him and jam someday. What a great time that would be!

[@newmoon54]

Before you go jam with Chris .................... ditch your KZbin handle ......... ~P~R~O~N~T~O~ ~!~ I GUESS YOU LIVE IN YOUR OWN LITTLE WORLD OF FILTH !?!?!? GEEZZZ LOUEEZZZ!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@MrMewsique]

I saw Chris in Santa Cruz and I became a huge fan and followed him everywhere. He gave a me a guitar lesson backstage at the Catalyst. I'll never forget it and it was the beginning of me applying jazz licks to my blues playing.. Thanks Chris!

[@robertfergusson7504]

Never even heard of this guy till today. What a discovery! This is what it's all about! I know what I'm going to be listening to for the next few hours!

[@thomasreubold3573]

What a feeling. Thanks a lot for Inspiration.

[@davidneath8194]

absolutely blew me away! What a guitarist ! he broke a string and no one noticed :) just played on. great stuff!

[@fourthofseven]

Wow, some kick ass blues. This guy smokes that LP. Intense and tasty!

[@fredpg]

Chris Cain is playing an Epiphone here!!! Who needs a custom shop Lespaul?

[@DougErapps]

fred pg he does. listen to how out of tune it goes. listen to how muddy the tone gets when he lowers his volume. that don’t happen when he plays his Gibsons.....

[@garydean777]

He covered up the logo

[@fredpg]

@@DougErapps Well, the the flaws you mention are easily corrected, but I agree an Epi is not a Gibson. Still, it goes to show you cant get a great tone with a cheap guitar.

[@DougErapps]

fred pg true!

[@nacienlos70]

@@DougErapps Sorry to tell you, there are many videos of him playing his gibson completely out of tune (his video playing with Bonamassa for instante).

Is that an Epiphone ?

[@nacienlos70]

Epiphone my friends. Anybody complaining about the tone?

[@jhrdrake7205]

He is obviously embarrassed because he covered it up, sorry, Gibson tone would be far superior but I dont blame him playing out with a cheaper guitar.

[@mrcali68]

The cable makes me nervous! Loop it through the strap!! 😬

[@jr0706]

Love seeing an Epiphone LP, and it sounds amazing. But why is the brand covered over with tape?

[@jhrdrake7205]

Probably embarrassed which is sad, epis are great and I have the Gibson counterparts. I would always play out with epi and use Gibsons for studio.

[@MortenRodneGuitar]

wow

They say the cream rises to the top, that may be so, but they still don't reach where Chris Cain is :)

[@josemolina959]

Concert setting, going through the PA system, that’s why he was able to cranck it up to 100! Good player, but too much ham for me! 👍🏼

[@mayito714]

Sounds like BB King.

[@jakelabete7412]

Judging by the comments not many here know Chris Cain so let me tell you he's really a piano player not a guitarist. Enjoy it nevertheless.

He doesn't look right in a suit... Where are the overalls? xD
