The 11th annual Bull Durham Blues Festival will take place this Friday and Saturday, September 11-12, at the old Durham Athletic Park. Headliners include Buddy Guy on Friday and Wilson Pickett on Saturday, and the rest of the line-up is equally impressive.
People go to it to see great entertainment, but it's so much deeper than that.
We're trying to use it as an education process. We want everyone to live the music so the music can continue to live. We want to get into the public school system and help the teachers with lesson plans so they can teach the children more about the blues and the significance of the blues. In the spirit of keeping the blues alive and well, everyone is invited to partake of some awesome music and some equally awesome food Friday and Saturday, September 11-12, at the old Durham Athletic Park. Here's your tuneful lineup.
