.:ARTIST LINEUP:. • Tomi Isobe’s Blues Band • The Scott & Larry Show • Ronnie V. & The Family Band
Blues music is about life and telling a story, and everyone has a story to tell. Blues music most certainly gave life to so many musical genres that came after it, setting the foundation for almost all popular music in the 20th century. Don’t be fooled by the blues’ basic musical structure that’s fairly simple to play – that only makes conveying a song’s message even more difficult, which is why the blues singers’ styles are so deeply rooted in passion and emotion. A good blues player has the ability to strike a chord deep within your soul and take those bottled up feelings of sadness, love, hope, and sorrow and smash it against a brick wall to set them free.
Family friendly event. All ages. $20 Tickets (12 & under free) Bigislandbluesfest2019.eventbrite.com for tickets.
