This week at the Blues Jam
Peggy “Blues Chanteuse” Ratusz, has won best in Blues awards for the past 17 years as well as best vocalist and most notable local musician who gives back to the community. A three-time semi-finalist in the International Blues Challenge held in Memphis, TN for the past 36 years, Ratusz produces her own shows including “Love Letter: A Tribute to Bonnie Raitt,” and “Blues In the Night” a collection of torchy and tantalizing Jazz standards, Swing tunes and Blues Shuffles. Genre: Traditional & Modern Blues & Swing, Old School Soul & Originals.
Our Nothin' But Blues Jam hosted by the Black Mountain Blues Society happens every Tuesday night! Bill Mattocks and Peggy Ratusz, cornerstones of our Blues community in Western NC, will rotate as hosts, generally every other week, and will kick off the evening with a set of Blues tunes starting at 7:30 PM. After their set, it’s your time to shine! We’ll have an open jam session where you can bring your instrument or your voice and perform up to three songs. Don’t worry about bringing a backline; the house band has got you covered. (You will need your own guitar, bass, harmonicas, or sticks.)
Musicians and singers can sign up at the event, and we strongly encourage everyone to stick to the Blues genre to keep the vibe going. So, mark your calendars, bring your friends, and join us for a fantastic night of blues, camaraderie, and musical magic. Downbeat and signup for the Jam is 7:30 pm.
