| Additional Information | House of Blues is a chain of music venues that first opened in 1992. The brand was developed by Isaac Tigrett, founder of the Hard Rock Café, along with a number of collaborators, most notably Dan Aykroyd, co-star of the 1980 film The Blues Brothers, from which the House of Blues took much of its stylings and aesthetic. Aykroyd continues to promote the brand, usually by making appearances at the opening of new locations. A Chicago location opened in 1996. The House of Blues bran places a heavy emphasis on the unifying power of music, as well as highlighting diversity. The African American roots of Blues music is particularly noted.
