The Blues Brothers were a serious blues and soul duo comprised of two comedians...John Belushi and Dan Aykroyd. The group started as a comedy sketch on Saturday Night Live...but then the group was taken seriously...recordings, a movie, live appearances...and even as the music (not comedy) performers for Saturday Night Live.

From Wikipedia's article on the House of Blues (

One set of the sculptures depicts the duo performing their act while the other set shows them sitting. The two works are on either side of a House of Blues kiosk in the airport.
