I started a quest to find terrific blues music and incredible musicianship when I was just a little kid. I also have a tremendous appreciation of fine musical instruments and equipment. One of my greatest joys all of my life was sharing my finds with my friends. I'm now publishing my journey. I hope that you come along!

AWARD-WINNING BLUES WILD MAN DEBUTS!

*** MATT HILL ***


You could call him "a young Howlin Wolf", "a Southern wild man" or you could come up with your own term. Whatever you call him, he knows how to rock a house to it's foundation! And these are the reasons why North Carolina native Matt Hill is making huge waves as a recent 2011 Blues Music Awards Winner and one of the most talked about electric acts on the blues scene today. Onstage Hill is completely uninhibited, driving audiences wild with his “whatever it takes” boundless stage antics. His voice, guitar playing, and his magnetic energy surely will take him straight to the top.

Hill started playing live in his teens and eventually started playing with local blues icons Max Drake and Chuck Cotton in a band called The Buzzkillz, and sitting in with Bob Margolin. Soon Matt was joining Bob Margolin on tour, playing with the likes of Blues heroes like Carey Bell, Hubert Sumlin, Willie "Big Eyes" Smith, Calvin "Fuzz" Jones, Pinetop Perkins, and Nappy Brown. Somewhere along the line, Matt developed a totally uninhibited, ferociously raving stage presence that harkens back to the heydays of Howlin' Wolf, Jerry Lee Lewis and Nappy Brown.

In September 2010 the Vizztone Label Group released Matt's debut album ON THE FLOOR which received great reviews and in May 2011 won the award for Best New Artist Debut at the Blues Music Awards (formally the W.C. Handy Awards) in Memphis TN. A couple months later Matt was also nominated for two awards at the Blues Blast Awards in Chicago IL. One for "Best New Artist Debut" and the other for the "Sean Costello Rising Star Award."

DO NOT miss this one. MATT HILL is a total mind-blower! He will perform from 8:30 pm til 9:30 pm with a killer back-up band: KIRK FLETCHER (guitar), CHRIS MILLAR (drums) and RICK REED (bass).

Below is a video sample of MATT HILL doing his thing:

AND A ROCKIN' MIDWEST

HARP-LEAD BLUES BAND TOO!

THE JAY EDWARD BAND

The exciting JAY EDWARD BAND is a harmonica-fueled unit worthy of being the headliner themselves! With a hard-hitting Chicago blues approach akin to early Paul Butterfield, they have most-recently added a great keyboard player who plays immaculate counterpoint to the soulful electric guitar, blazing harmonica and thrilling propulsive rhythm section.

Our humble prediction: These guys are going to totally blow everyone away. Do not miss their brief but heavenly half-hour slot from 8 pm til 8:30 pm.
