Ana Popovic w/Young Revelators
Shank Hall 1434 N. Farwell Ave., Milwaukee, Wisconsin 53202
Even before Ana Popovic released her first album, she was in the company of some blues greats. In 2000 the Serbia-born singer/guitarist appeared on a Jimi Hendrix tribute album alongside established players like Buddy Miles, Eric Burdon and Taj Mahal, and over the 10 albums she’s released since she’s proven herself one of the most virtuosic blues players of her generation. Her most recent album, 2016’s Trilogy, is a triple album with each disc dedicated to a different style (funk and soul on the first disc, blues rock on the second, and jazz on the third). It features guest spots from guitar greats Joe Bonamassa and Robert Randolph, drummers Bernard Purdie and Cody Dickinson (of North Mississippi Allstars) and rapper Al Kapone.
