1st Brooklyn Big Eyed Blues festival is here
Hello All!
At last, the 1st Brooklyn Big Eyed Blues festival is here! I've been bending your ears for the last two years with the phrase, "Keep Blues Alive...Let it Live in
We at Big Eyed Productions, are dedicated to assisting in reviving and sustaining Blues music.
In our attempt to "Keep Blues Alive", we will start out the festival with a Blues workshop for community youths. The youths will be given an introduction to guitar, harmonica and blues writing. Thirty youths will be chosen to participate in the workshop. Classes will be taught by area professionals, such as the outstanding vocalist, Tulivu Cumberbatch, The Blues captain, Keith Gamble and the 'Gentle Bear", Michael Hill, of the Michael Hill's Blues Mob.
We will bring in the evening with performances by Beareather Reddy & Quartet, Keith"The Captain" Gamble and the Brand Nu Gypsies and The Michael Hill's Blues Mob.
Please come out and listen to some "red hot BLUES" and help us keep this wonderful American art form alive!
bye for now!
Beareather Reddy
Big Eyed Productions, President
P.S. We are still in need of 30 harmonicas. We would love your help. You can sponsor a child by donating $22, the price of one harmonica.
