WYCC Episode 4: Corey Dennison trailer

Here's a sneak peak at Episode 4 from "Buddy Guy's Legends Presents The Chicago Blues." This episode, which airs Oct. 24th, 2014 at 9pm on WYCC Channel 20, stars Chicago's own Corey Dennison. Corey found his musical calling while hanging out with his harp playing uncle. “My uncle snuck me into clubs where I saw some of the greatest Blues cats of all-time, Albert King, Albert Collins and Junior Wells. This is where it became clear to me; I wanted to be a Blues Man.” He spent 12 years honing his skills as a sideman for Carl Weathersby, a mentor beyond the music: “Pop has really showed me the real me and have helped me in a lot of ways. Showed me what to do what not to do. I wouldn’t know anything if it was not for Carl and my brothers-in-arms.” Playing with Weathersby blessed Corey with opportunities to share the stage with such musical greats as The Kinsey Report, Rob Blaine, Chico Banks,The Steepwater Band, Jimmy Johnson, Robert Randolph, Derek Trucks And John Mayer, Gerry Hundt, Nick Moss, Lurrie Bell, Carlos Johnson and the Buddha of Bass, Mr. Bill Dickens, and Buddy Guy.
