"THE BIG-BAND SOUND OF THE SEVEN-PIECE GROUP HAS CAUGHT ON IN LONG BEACH. THEY ARE A FAMILIAR PRESENCE IN THE LOCAL MUSIC SCENE. THEY FIRST STARTED TO CATCH THE ATTENTION OF BLUES JUNKIES ABOUT FIVE YEARS AGO. NOW, THEY HAVE DEVELOPED A HARD CORE FOLLOWING IN TOWN." RANDOM LENGTH NEWS
The Long Beach Blues Society produces "Blues in Schools" programs. Currently we have done two programs in 2017 in classroom settings with professional musicians, showing the basics techniques and touching on blues in history. We are returning back to Long Beach Polytechnic High School and Renaissance High School for the Performing Arts for an all school and specialized class with professional musicians. We are looking to expand into the entire Harbor region. This gives music students background on blues music and it's place in today's world. Portion of proceeds will go to benefit The Long Beach Blues Society.
