The Jorgensens Friday 4:30pm - 6:00pm
The Jorgensens’ ‘Americana Soul’ is one of this year’s sleeper successes. The couple’s new, 33-minute album, is a joy from beginning to end. That is thanks to its diverse musical sounds and styles, and lyrical themes, each of which will be discussed in its own moment here. The sequencing of said content adds even more to the album’s overall appeal and will also be discussed later. Each item noted is important in its own right to this record. All things considered they make Americana Soul easily one of this year’s top new independent albums and potentially overall albums.
Texas Flood Saturday 2:30pm - 4:00pm
Tommy Katona and Texas Flood have become one of the premier blues bands in all of North Texas. Evolving from the original tribute to Stevie Ray Vaughan, Texas Flood pays tribute to the legends as well as the future of the blues through their music and style. With an in-your-face show and raw high energy playing Tommy Katona takes the listener on a journey through the blues.
Anthony Gomes Saturday 4:30pm - 6:00pm
"Gomes is a power player who is at his best when his gear is in the scorched earth between blues and rock. After all, it’s the electric guitar; sometimes tickling it is not enough."
Chicago Blues All-Stars Sunday 6:30pm - 8:00pm
