Third Sunday Blues means dozens of players come down for a friendly and inspiring jam with a different ‘house band’ each month. Musicians appreciate the low key high tech gig with ‘front of house PA’ mixed by a real sound engineer out the front.
The open mic has been a big hit so your need to put your name up on the board early. Young acts are encouraged to step up to the plate and will find a very appreciative crowd. Third Sunday Blues is about encouraging new talent to have a go.
The style of the 12 bar blues is recognized by musicians from around the world.
It can be fast or slow. Funky, rocky, rockabilly. Smooth or gritty. The blues is versatile.
