“If you’re not having fun, you’re not at Kingston Mines.” – Lenin “Doc” Pellegrino

“When I get to play for people, whether it’s 10 people like in the old days, or whoever shows up to the clubs and festivals now, I take that home with me every night.” – Chris Cain

‘Cheyenne Valley Drive’ is a tasteful, soulful album full of great songs and interesting sounds.

“Please know that the music is in my heart and in my soul and me and the boys are looking forward to performing for you very soon.”

Before joining James Brown’s band in 1965, Jabo had played with artists that included Howlin’ Wolf, Big Mama Thornton, John Lee Hooker, and Bobby “Blue” Bland.

Jeff Beck & Keith Richards appear on the song “Cognac,” Mick Jagger lends his vocals to “You Did the Crime,” and James Bay guests on “Blue No More.”

Blues Hall of Fame inductions, free medical screenings, meet-and-greets with art shows, fundraisers, and of course the Blues Music Awards themselves make for an event filled week!

This year’s exciting lineup is led by five-time GRAMMY® Award-winner Robert Cray and his band, Hi Rhythm.

Today an institution beloved by three generations of fans and having influenced equally as many blues and jazz musicians welcomes new owners.
