Testimonials
Mike Jeffers
Chicago Jazz News - CEO
Bear's story is a fascinating one – starting in Chicago, where he first started playing bass guitar, then moving to Los Angeles, where he collaborated and recorded with some of the most illustrious names in the global music scene.
Eric Schelkopf
Kane County Chronicle - Jazz & Blues Writer/Critic
The Bear Williams Band is a force of nature that delivers the blues in the most passionate way it can. Chicago native Bear Williams (aka Larry Kimpel) is a multi talented bandleader who plays bass and guitar, sings and writes songs for his group. His background is rich in musical diversity and he can play in most any genre, but blues is his true passion.

Great band! Classic Chicago blues meshed with Country, Rock and a few originals. Very entertaining and interactive with our guests. Highly recommended!
