Ghost Town Blues Band
Irene’s Pub, 855 Bank
Street
Wednesday, July 12;
8-11 pm
Beale Street’s latest success story, 2016 Independent
Blues Award winner for "Best Contemporary Blues Song", 2015 Blues
Blast Music Award Nominee for “Best Blues Band” and 2014 International Blues
Challenge Runner-up is Ghost Town Blues Band. Not your grandpa’s blues band,
their live show has been captivating audiences in the U.S. and Canada with a
second-line horn entrance, cigar box guitars and electric push brooms to Allman
Brothers style jams and even a hip-hop trombone player.
Horns, harmonies and homegrown instruments combined with
an energetic and roots rich festival set makes Ghost Town Blues Band one of the
“must see live bands on the festival circuit today.” Both Preston McEwen behind
the drums and Matt Karner on the bass guitar are a punishing rhythm section
behind multi-instrumentalist/frontman Matt Isbell with raunchy cigar box guitar
licks and raspy "Dr. John-like, whiskey and gravel-soaked vocals."
With the addition of Trombonist Suavo Jones, Tim Stanek on B3 and Taylor Orr on
lead guitar, the grooves go from funky to "funk-nasty" as the band
gains more notoriety in the blues festival and jam circuit. Ghost Town
Blues Band performed all across North America at over 24 festivals in 2016 and
already have 20 festivals and 5 international tours booked for 2017.

Soulstack
With
special guest Sue Foley
Rainbow Bistro, 76
Murray Street
Friday, July 21
Soulstack delivers a visceral experience; one of seasoned
musicians playing the music of their roots with authentic realism. It’s the
sound of Staples Singers-inspired southern harmony, tremolo-drenched baritone
guitar, with a late-sixties New Orleans-style rhythm section and the gurgle of a
Hammond organ driving it along with the unmistakable and distinctive voice of
Jon Knight. Soulstack is: Jon Knight (Vocal/Guitar), Mark
Wessenger (Vocal/Piano/Organ), Chris Latta (Guitar /
Baritone), Darryl ‘Harpo’ Peterson (Bass), Tom Bona (Drums), and
Michael Francis (saxophone).
Multi-award winning guitarist, singer & songwriter,
Sue Foley will be joining Soulstack as their special guest. Sue has recently

Friday, August 11 @ 8:30 pm; $75 advance + HST &
fees
L.A.
based, guitar-player and singer ANA POPOVIC is back on the road promoting her
new triple album “TRILOGY” - Her most ambitious project yet. With “TRILOGY” Ana
releases three albums in one! Twenty-three funk, rock/blues and jazz tunes
produced by Grammy Award winner Warren Riker (Lauryn Hill, Carlos Santana),
Grammy Award winner Tom Hambridge (Buddy Guy) and Delfeayo Marsalis, one of the
top trombonists, composers and producers in jazz today. Guest appearances
include Joe Bonamassa, Robert Randolph and many others.
The only
female guitarist part of the ‘all-star’ Experience Hendrix 2014 - ’17 line-up
about the release: "In an era where most are skeptic about the current
state and future of the music industry, I wanted “TRILOGY” to tell a different
story. The record biz might be broken and Spotify might rip us off, but that
can’t keep an artist down. Creativity is very much alive, and music is the
celebration of life."

Bobby Rush...2017
GRAMMY winning blues legend, 2006 Blues Hall of Fame Inductee, 10x Blues Music
Award winner, B.B. King Entertainer of the Year!
“…the man known
as ‘The King of the Chitlin Circuit’… a man who deserves being mentioned in the
same context as the blues greats Muddy Waters, Sonny Boy Williamson,
and B.B. King.” – American Blues Scene
Bobby Rush is the
greatest bluesman currently performing. “Porcupine Meat” (released
2016) is a testament to his brilliance, which presents him at his very best,
and doesn’t try to be anything that he is not. “I just try to record good music
and stories,” he humbly states. With this recording, he has more than
accomplished his goal, and has produced one of the finest contemporary blues
albums in recent times.
Bobby truly is one of
the last of the GREATS of his generation still performing and Music by the
Bay Live is excited and honoured to be presenting him this August in Ajax.

Unsung and On The
Side
With Carolyn Fe
Tuesdays, 7-9 pm
Re-broadcast Saturday 10 am – noon & Sunday 2-4 pm
(all times EST)
It’s all about the Blues, Jazz and its derivatives from
around the globe and just around the corner. Songs rarely heard, from the very
first recordings all the way to indie artists who consciously push the envelope
to the next generation sounds of the genre; some older releases will be spun -
just because the album in old, doesn't mean it's forgotten, thus the "On
The Side" part of the show's title.
**********
Streaming great Blues, Roots,
Soul, R&B, Folk, East Coast and Celtic music across Canada and around the
world 24/7/365.
Check out their Canadian Blues
shows and hosts, including James Doran’s ‘Inside The Blues’, Brant Zwicker’s
‘At The Crossroads’, along with Mark Stenzler's ‘Blues Zeppelin’ from
Switzerland … and lots more Canadian and international Blues shows.
