Sugar Ray & the Bluetones |
One of the first blues festivals of the calendar year in
the United States is Blues Blast 2012 on
March 10th.
The
Phoenix Blues Society is proud to be bringing Blues Blast
2012 to the Margaret T. Hance Park in downtown Phoenix (located at
200 East Moreland Street). Easy access
by car and light rail all contributed to the choice of venue and we look
forward to producing a family friendly, secure event in the middle of the
city with support from the Arizona Rangers and the Phoenix Police
Department.
 Appearing at Blues Blast 2012 will
be Sugar Ray & the Bluetones,
Dave Riley & Bob Corritore, The Sugar Thieves, Big
Daddy D & the Dynamites, George Bowman and the Baddboyz Blues
Band featuring Lucius Parr, and Common Ground Blues Band. The show
will start at 11:00 am; gates will open at 10:00 am.
Tickets
are now on sale. Order
online from
eventbrite. Be sure to check the
Early Bird special --- only $15 per ticket!
Check the
Events page for information on
special events surrounding Blues Blast weekend.
We hope to see you there!
