Description:
Blind Pig Records recording artist and Massachusetts native Albert Cummings plays blues-rock. In 1998 he walked into an open blues jam one Sunday night and announced that he was going to play some souped up blues. That jam led to Cummings' winning the Blues Society's Colossal Contenders contest, and he journeyed to Beale Street to compete in the Blues Foundation's 1999 International Blues Challenge. That relationship also opened up an opportunity for him to work with Tommy Shannon, Reese Winans and Chris Layton of Double Trouble (Tommy Shannon and Chris Layton are also known as Stevie Ray Vaughan's backing team.) Blues giant B.B. King, dubbed Cummings 'a great guitarist.' Tours and shows with blues legends B.B. King, Johnny Winter, Buddy Guy and others brought his music to a new audience. This is your chance to see Albert live in Cleveland!

This program is FREE with first-come, first-serve seating available in the auditorium. Presented by Kent State University, Kent State Stark University and the Akron Art Museum, the 2009 Global Lens Film Series features the theatrical release of ten films by important, emerging artists hailing from China to Argentina, Macedonia to Mozambique. Now in it's sixth season, the Global Lens Film Series promotes cross-cultural understanding through the medium of cinema, providing a platform for exceptional storytelling that opens a window into the diverse world in which we live. From October 16 - 25, Kent State University will screen all ten films on its Main Campus; screening dates at the Kent State Stark campus are yet to be determined. Many screenings will be followed by discussions about cultural similarities and differences evoked by films, moderated by experts from the Kent State University faculty.

The 2009 Northeast Ohio Global Lens Film Series is organized and presented by Kent State University Libraries and the Department of History.
