Festival Submission Deadline Extended The P.O. Box is crammed with CD's and press kits, so the CFBS is extending its deadline for artists and agents to submit their promo-packs for this summer's Cape Fear Blues Festival. Deadline is February 28. Go to the Festival page for details and shipping info.
BLUES FOR HAITI a Success! The Cape Fear Blues Society joined forces with The Rusty Nail and Mike Raab of Carolina Wedding Guide to stage an all-blues benefit for Haiti relief on January 23. Nearly $1500 was collected by the Red Cross and listeners were treated to music from five different bands including Ten Dollar Thrill, Roadhouse Blues Band, Tommy B. & The Stingers, Michele & The Midnight Blues, and Jus' Woke Up. Thanks to all who donated time, effort and cash to this cause!
Benefits Raise Money for Memphis Trip New Bern blues band Jen & Tonic and Wilmington soloist Rick Tobey raised much-needed funds during their January benefit shows. They traveled to the International Blues Challenge in Memphis TN, January 20-23 and competed on Beale Street with over 150 other blues acts! It was an experience that they will never forget and all of the musicians wanted to express their gratitude for the support provided by the CFBS and our blues community. Thank you!
