This is show #76, The Blue Ridge Blues & BBQ Festival Preview Podcast!

Hey, welcome back, everybody! This is Dave Harrison, your blues DJ coming at you once again from the
blues filled studio in the Star City of Virginia… I’ve got another great show for you!

Well, we started off the show with “My Dog's Still Walkin'”, the title track of the brand new Alligator CD
from Smokin' Joe Kubek and Bnois King!

So, who else are we gonna hear from on our Festival Preview Podcast? Well, we've got some samples
of the blues bands competing in our blues competition from Noon until 5:00 pm! This show is only an
hour long so I couldn't play everyone! So come out and hear them all! On this show, you'll be hearing
The Contagious Blues Band playing Heavy Weather; Sol, Tell You a Story; The Cream of the Crop Blues
Band, I Just Want A Little Bit; The Mike Lucci Band, River Hip Mama. Nine bands will be competing and
the winner announced at 5:30 pm! Other bands competing at the festival are (in no particular order):
Blackwater, Sparks Will Fly - Featuring Brittany Sparks, The Mo' Hippa Band, Blue Light District,
and Hunter Wolfe & ARE.

The Fat Daddy Band follows up next on the show with Cab Driver Blues and Slick Bottom Shoes!

You’ll hear three great tunes from Damon Fowler! We’ll start with Sugar Lee, then Some Fun, and
finishing with I’m Just a Old Chunk of Coal!

Our headliner this year is Smokin’ Joe Kubek and Bnois King! We’ll finish the Festival Preview
Podcast with their band cranking out Don’t Lose My Number, Freezer Burn, and Flamethrower!

A special thank you goes out to Alligator Records and Blind Pig Records and all the independent artists
that made this show possible!
