Artsun's Sunshine Coast Blues Club was formed after the outstanding response to the first Sunshine Coast Blues Festival in 2005. The Coast's Blues musicians saw the need to get together and express their love for the Blues on a regular basis and after an extensive search found a home at the crossroads in Nambour.
The Royal George Hotel has been the place to Boogie to the Blues on the first Thursday of the month since 1st of February 2007.Jam Coordinators, Al Hensley and Bob Lee, along with the house band and a host of guest performers, are keeping the Blues alive on the coast with a welcome to all players to join in and spread the word of the Blues.The word certainly does seem to be spreading with performers from across the coast regularly joined by visitors from Brisbane and interstate who appreciate the laid back atmosphere and dedication to the blues that our jam embodies.
The growing popularity of the Jam at The Royal George has inspired our members to reach out to the north end of the coast with another opportunity for players to get together at Noosa on the third Wednesday of the Month. Noosa Jam coordinators Kath Williams & Paul Martin welcome Blues lovers to join them and the house band for good times and great music.
