A keyboard player like Al Arsenault has had to pay a lot of dues over the years. Today this veteran musician has a wealth of interesting experiences to share. The 66 year old Leicester resident only plays three solo gigs a week these days. Playing out as a soloist for the last 20 years gave this blues veteran a much needed break after hitting the national road and playing with and opening for many legendary figures in the blues. His long, professional career began when he was only a teenager in high school.
