This fun, family-friendly all day music festival will feature International Blues Challenge (IBC) finalists the Laurie Morvan Band and Brazilian guitarist Artur Menezes. Our own native son, blues and boogie pianist, Arthur Migliazza, will play with Tom Walbank to recreate the sound that took them to Memphis to become IBC finalists in 2010. The President of the Arizona Blues Hall of Fame (ABHOF) Mike Blommer will play with the Porch Rockers. ABHOF is sponsoring inductees, the Bryan Dean Trio, who also won an IBC slot in 2010. Soloist Eric Ramsey has won songwriting awards from Tucson to Telluride, and from Phoenix to Memphis. The youth band School of Rock Tucson will kick off the event.
