Friday 5/29
Tripple Hitter Blues Experience with
Candye Kane, Trampled Under Foot & Bruce Katz

Candye's live show is the stuff of legend. She honors the bold blues women of the past with both feet firmly planted in the present. She belts - growls - shouts - croons and moans from a lifetime of suffering and overcoming obstacles. She'll deliver a barrelhouse blues tune or a soulful ballad and then slay the crowd with her balls out rendition of "Whole Lotta Love" Led Zeppelin style
TUF
When was the last time you saw a three piece family blues band with two left handed guitarists? Let alone a blues band with strong vocals both female and male? Trampled Under Foot, winners of the 2008 International Blues Challenge, is like no other blues band you will ever see or hear. Danielle is an amazing blues singer and an excellent bassist. Kris fires right in the pocket on the drums and sings as well. Nick is a strong singer and an accomplished guitarist, winning the 2008 Albert King Award from the IBC.
Bruce Katz
Bruce has been nominated for a second year in a row and is a 2009 Blues
Music Award Nominee for "Pinetop Perkins Piano Player Of The Year"

Though he?s influenced and inspired many of the most famous guitar players, Hubert owns the magic. His style is original and personal and instantly recognizable. What kind of man can make or break your heart with his guitar? Hubert has played with Howlin Wolf, Muddy Waters , Eddie Shaw & many others
