House of Blues and Jazz is happy to present Sam Hooper Group!
Sam Hooper, a talented Boston-based blues musician, together with Jordan Scannella on bass and Akira Nakamura on drums will present their show in China for the fourth time. The first performance of the Sam Hooper Group at the House of Blues & Jazz will be September 30th.
They were among the first foreign bands on the stage of the House of Blues and Jazz in 2004, and were warmly wellcomed by Shanghai audiences again in 2006. This year, the three will be joined by keyboard player Todd Marston.
Their music can be described as an alluring blend of blues/rock, pop and funk. Sam’s soulful vocals have been compared to Otis Redding and Robert Cray, while critics have likened his blistering guitar playing to Jimi Hendrix and Carlos Santana.
The Sam Hooper Group will perform at the House of Blues and Jazz every day except Monday. More about the band at www.samhooper.com

Taking the music reigns at this jazz institution is Sam Hooper, a talented Boston-based blues musician, along with Jordan Scannella (bass) and Akira Nakamura (drums). Together with Todd Marston (keyboards), the quartet is set to roll out their alluring blend of blues, rock, pop and funk six nights a week for jazz-heads' listening pleasure.


Unbelievable energy for all three sets and wonderful vibe with the band. Great way to unwind and get yourself into the groove for some high energy tunes. Sam Hooper is amazing and the band members all shine. I believe Mr Okinawa could even take it up another notch.
