The Blues Preachers will take you to another place and time, somewhere between 1920 and 1940. Their music paints a landscape of pre-war struggle and determination with sounds reminiscent of the Deep South. The Blues Preachers perform a fusion of good old blues, rags, gospel and hillbilly folk. The powerful simplicity of driving finger-style and slide-guitar combined with the sounds of tasteful harmonica and old-school vocal harmonies create a traditional and untarnished sound that will have you on the edge of your seats. The Blues Preachers will make you want to get up and dance with their joyful country and ragtime blues, and send a shiver down your spine with their atmospheric feels, echoing and paying homage to the sacred sounds of early artists such as Blind Willie Johnson. This is blues done right, the way it has been done since the 20s. 6:30-8:30pm, 'Live in the Attic' @ Hotel Blue. Tickets: $15. Bar & Kitchen open.

Come along from 4:30pm to hear 'Mark 'N The Blues' performing live in the lounge (free event).

Part of The Roaring 20s Festival. Welcome to the 'Blues Mountains'!
