Originally from Chicago, Illinois, Cameron Webb began his musical journey at the ripe age of 4, in a African American Baptist church singing Gospel music. He titles this particular section of his life as the "Foundation Era". It was here, where he first witnessed the supernatural STRENGTH that MUSIC can bring about in the darkest hours of one's life and decided to use music as his avenue to provide hope to a lost world. Cameron continues to sing gospel music at his church and frequently features a gospel number as part of his performances.

Simultaneously, Cameron was also being heavily influenced by Soul and Blues music. He recalls listening to "Dusties" as a young lad on Saturday mornings and impersonating old school groups such as the Temptations at family functions. This is the music that Cameron performed in his early shows.

He later found a passion for Jazz and soon incorporated it into his shows regularly. An Author once wrote of Cameron, "(He) makes even Standards sound FRESH and INTERESTING".

“I hope to continue to brighten the lives of everyone I come in contact with. I aspire to bring joy to the downtrodden, peace to the flustered, and love to the heart broken. I want to change the world… One person at a time!”” - Cameron Webb

Showcasing some of the region’s finest blues talent, Third Coast Blues Collective brings authentic blues traditions to life with soulful vocals, dynamic musicianship, and electrifying performances. With special guests Benny Rickun and Big Al Dorn this unique line up hasn’t been seen in the area!

Benny is a protege of Milwaukee harmonica great Jim Liban (Short Stuff). He plays his fills and comps like Big Walter Horton and solos with a style all his own with nods to Little Walter, Junior Wells, James Cotton and Carey Bell. He’s been tearing up the clubs in Milwaukee with the Blue Rubies, The Alex Wilson Band and now as a member of Rev's band. His music store "Gearheadz", located at 40 w. National Ave in Milwaukee, is quickly becoming the place to buy and sell vintage amps and guitars. His store is a great place to meet and hang out with all kinds of unique musicians from the midwest.

“Big” Al Dorn brings an original, authentic raw blues sound with a nod towards West-Coast Swing and Mississippi Hill Country Blues to go along with it. Smokin’ Hot Grooves coupled together with powerful harmonica and stinging guitar. He plays original tunes and classic covers by John Lee Hooker, Muddy Waters, RL Burnside, The Chicago and West-Coast Harp Legends. This hard working, rising young star is a force to be reckoned with and a definite “Must See”!!

Born and raised on the Eastside of Milwaukee, Al began his career busking on street corners for pocket change until a chance encounter with local Blues Artist Reverend Raven catapulted him into local stardom. Through the Reverend, this astonishing young star has toured with and opened for some of the biggest names in the Midwest such as Lil' Ed Williams, Charlie Love,

Tutored by Legendary Harmonica Players Jim Liban and Madison Slim, "Big" Al is considered one of the best Harmonica Players in Wisconsin. He recently won a WAMI Award Harmonica Player Of The Year.

When not performing with his own band, you can see Al with Chicago and Wisconsin Blues Hall Of Famer Paul Filipowicz, Delmark Recording Artist Dave Weld, Wolf Recording Artist Brenda Taylor and a host of others.

"Big" Al Dorn is a true professional, honoring his influences and keeping the legacies alive, all while remaining original in his approach to the music.
