🎶 REWIND: The Blue Edition
A Poetry & Open Mic Community Experience
Join us for an unforgettable evening of music, storytelling, poetry, and community as we rewind the spirit of “We Be the Blues.”
This special Blue Edition brings together the recording artists from the We Be the Blues: Songs From the Soil documentary soundtrack — from ages 3 to 85 — for live performances and intimate artist talks about the stories, memories, and Southern roots behind the music.
This is more than a show.
It’s a gathering.
It’s testimony.
It’s a love letter to the South.
✨ Live performances from the documentary soundtrack
✨ Poetry & open mic moments
✨ Artist conversations about legacy, land, and lineage
✨ Intergenerational voices sharing one stage
✨ A space to reflect, connect, and celebrate our blues
This is a pay-what-you-want event.
Give what you can. Come as you are. All are welcome.
👨🏾👩🏾👧🏾👦🏾 Family-friendly atmosphere
🥤 Light refreshments & non-alcoholic beverages will be available
“We Be the Blues” is about the rhythm that lives in us — in our families, our faith, our fields, our front porches, and our fight. This night allows the community to sit inside that sound together.
