Boogie Cat’s Dance Party
Celebrating twin birthdays,
friendship with B.B. King
The Norman Sylvester Band
featuring his amazing daughter
Lenanne Miller and the smooth
sounds of Renato Caranto will
celebrate the Portland bluesman’s
shared birthday with the late King
of the Blues B.B. King on Satur-
day, Sept. 16 at the Adrianna Hill
Grand Ballroom in the Pythian
Building, 918 S.W. Yamhill.
Sylvester grew up in Bonita,
Louisiana, hearing BB King on
the juke boxes as well as other
Blues legends.. After moving to
Portland, he learned to play gui-
tar from his high school buddy
Isaac Scott. Though Sylvester first
played Gospel, Soul, Funk as well
as the Blues, he realized over 32
years ago that he was destined to
be a bluesman and started the Nor-
man Sylvester band.
After playing the first Water-
front Blues (then Rose City) Fes-
tival in 1987, BB’s manager called
them to open for BB King at Arlene
Schnitzer Concert Hall. That show
really launched the band into a pe-
riod of great success that continues
to this day. They opened again for
BB in 1991 and connected with
him when possible after that.
When the Blues men were to-
gether, BB referred to Sylvester as
his “Birthday Brother.” They were
born on the same day, 20 years
apart.
The band continues to dedicate
Boogie Cat’s birthday party to the
King of the Blues. Tickets are $10
in advance at tickettomato.com or
$12 at the door.
