DAVE WELD
Blues guitarist, vocalist, songwriter and bandleader Dave Weld got his start on Chicago’s west side in the late 70s. Grammy winner and Blues Hall of Fame Inductee JB Hutto was his teacher and mentor. At the 1815 Club on Roosevelt Road, Dave was in the house band with Chico Chism, Shorty Gilbert, Hubert Sumlin, Detroit Junior, and Eddie Shaw. Dave played there with Otis Rush, Guitar Junior, Tail Dragger, Little Arthur, Johnny Littlejohn and more. During this time Weld was introduced to Lil’ Ed. They started the band “Lil’ Ed and the Blues Imperials” and played every joint on the west side for years.
In 1988, with Lil’ Ed’s blessing Dave started “Dave Weld and the Imperial Flames”.
