Chuck Berry to headline concert honoring the late Johnnie Johnson

Chuck Berry will hold a tribute concert for the Johnnie Johnson, the man Berry has called his “best piano player.” Berry has also said that Johnson “performed near perfect sync of music,” and that “no pianist has played piano as fluently and harmonically to my style of songs as did Johnnie Johnson, from the beginning of my career up to now.” The performance in Johnson’s honor will take place the night of April 29th at The Pageant in St. Louis.

Proceeds raised from the event will go to Johnnie Johnson's wife and family. Chuck is donating his time and has inspired many of the biggest names in Blues from the St. Louis area, including Henry Townsend.

This is a great opportunity for families to see this Blues Legend at one of the country's premier venues. Tickets are only $10 and available by calling The Pageant at 314-726-6161. Tickets can also be purchased onlinethrough TicketMaster.com. Check the venue’s Website www.thepageant.com for more information. ChuckBerry.com
