Who is Big John? “Big John” Zhang Ling is a pioneer of blues in China. His band, the Rhythm Dogs, spearheaded the blues movement in China over twenty years ago, bringing the blues to new generations of music lovers. Known as one of China’s best bassists, he was also the bassist for China’s Godfather of Rock, Cui Jian. As China’s Ambassador of the blues, Big John has hosted, performed and recorded with international artists in blues, jazz and rock at his own blues club in Beijing.
Big John has teamed up with local drumming legend John Perri (Marcia Hines, Debbie Byrne, Joe Chindamo) and guitarists Felix Thiang and Deane Toohey, calling on them to dig into their very core, summoning their mastery over blues, rock, soul and jazz to bring their unique blend of raw grit and energy to original and classic blues tunes.
