The Gulf Island based bluesman picked and grinned his way through an almost sold out performance at the Wolf’s Den for the Lethbridge Folk Club. He was backed by stand-up bassist Farley Scott, who switched to electric bass for a good part of the first set.
Quitzau started his laid back first set playing a mellow instrumental on his battered Stratocaster, then switched to a dobro for some tasteful slide playing. A pretty instrumental, ‘Ferris Wheel,’ also included a pretty cool steel drum solo.
He sang a couple really pretty numbers, but shone on the guitar on which he exhibited supreme feel and taste for his instrument. He ended his first set with a restrained and eerie slide powered version of blues classic ‘Rollin’ and Tumblin.’
