This renowned virtuoso has been called “the thinking man’s guitar hero” (The New Yorker), having stretched the limits of blues guitar for over four decades, both in high-profile collaborations with artists like Captain Beefheart and Jeff Buckley and restlessly experimental solo projects (including the 2013 BAM Next Wave piece The Edge of Heaven). Lucas’ latest is a whimsical tribute to the music of Max Fleischer’s Betty Boop and Popeye cartoons, featuring Broadway star Sarah Stiles (Avenue Q).
