The Albert King Alumni Tribute Show

This program takes place in person.

Kick off your weekend at the Missouri History Museum in Forest Park! Each Thursday Night at the Museum will be the most fun, engaging, uplifting, thought-provoking, perspective-shaping night of your week. And there are drinks. Join us starting at 5:30pm for happy hour and pop-up activities, such as brief tours, games, and performances. The main stage comes to life at 6:30pm, light appetizers and drinks are available for purchase until 7:00pm, and the Museum’s exhibits are open until 8:00pm for you to explore!

Don’t miss this performance and panel discussion featuring acclaimed musicians who toured with the legendary Blues and Rock & Roll Hall of Famer Albert King. King expected excellence and dependability, and if either were lacking in his musicians, King was known to say that “they fired themselves.” Lady J Huston who toured with King as Trumpeter, Vocalist and Music Director has assembled alumni musicians to pay tribute and perform Albert King’s greatest hits. The group will also share their stories of being on the road with King and what it was like to perform alongside one of the most influential guitarists in the history of blues, rock ‘n roll, and soul music!
