Blues prodigy Gary Clark Jr. will be performing at a sold out show tonight at First Avenue in Minneapolis. It will be the first performance in the Twin Cities for the 29 year-old singer and guitarist who the New York Times calls "the most heralded bluesman of his generation."
He has two songs on the soundtrack to the motion picture, "12 Years a Slave," that show off his quieter side. You can click on the audio link to hear "Glitter Aint Gold."
