About Me


Alt Blues... whatever that is
Some people get what we're doing. Many more don't.
There are a handful of people that have helped to put on two great events to help bring attention to some bands and music that we really enjoy.
We think more people should know about this musc.
That's it. Nothing more, nothing less.
Our plans for 2009 will be announced soon. Hope you'll want to be involved.

We're putting up new music on our player each day. We're going through all the 2008 festival perfomers one more time on our way to the countdown for the 2009 festival. Today we're featuring
CHARLIE PARR
One of the real gems of Minnesota musicians. Charlie will be on the radio with a live performance this Wednesday on KFAI's House Party with Harold Tremblay. After that 5pm performance, the House Party moves to the 331 Club in nordeast Minneapolis for a 7pm to 9pm show. 40 Watt Bulb will then play the rest of the evening. Tune in and come on out for a great night music.
