The Rhythm Room has been a fixture in the Blues and Roots music scene in Phoenix since 1991. The premise of Bob Corritore, the founder and owner, was/is to replicate the feel of the Mississippi Delta juke joints with a bit of the blues joints he frequented in Chicago. He has succeeded with this vision too which many of the Rhythm Room Regulars will attest.
The Rhythm Room has been a venue for touring national acts, a stage for local musicians, and much needed respite from the glitz and glamor of the Scottsdale clubs. Many local artists owe their musical careers to the start that this club offered them. Additionally, when the club is quiet before the doors open, one can hear the stirring of the ghosts of many musicians that have gone to the other side.
These galleries cover the entire anniversary weekend plus some images of the Rhythm Room staff and regulars. Enjoy.
