For 34 years, you have been enjoying some of the best blues harp artists (and their bands) the world has to offer.
On our 35th anniversary extravaganza, we delve into some early West Coast Blues for a special tribute to the legendary Hollywood Fats Band!
Featuring original band members Al Blake and Fred Kaplan, we have added these sterling players as well: Kid Ramos, Rena Beavers, Mike Turturro and more.
Returning for another in a long series of Blues Harp Battles is the iconic harpmeister Rod Piazza, who will be performing with Carl Sonny Leyland, Nathan James and Troy Sandow, among others.
And there is more:
The Mighty Mojo Prophets have a long SoCal history of making the best in west coast blues, so it is fitting that the band, with founding members Tommy Eliff and Mitch Dow, be featured on this 35th anniversary show.
The rarely seen Blue Shadows were built from the Blasters' rhythm section of Bill Bateman and Johnny Bazz, with Javier Matos supplying guitar and vocals on their soulful, raw and in-your-face original music.
Opening the amazing anniversary show are Billy Watson and Robin Henkel, 2 award-winning artists who will collaborate starting at 7 pm.
