Coming
Bruce Bar and Grill, Friday, July Sometimes we just get lucky when it comes to booking talented blues artists and this is certainly the case with our opportunity to bring New Orlean' blues legend, Bryan Lee to Kincardine. Bryan is on his way to the Ottawa BluesFestival in July and had an opening in his tour that made it possible for us to bring him to The Bruce Bar and Grill.
Nominee at the 2007 Blues Music Awards
for "Best Contemporary Blues Album" with his new release
"Katrina Was Her Name"
on Justin Time Records. A bona fide New Orleans blues guitar hero and
longtime staple on Bourbon Street in the French Quarter, Bryan Lee is a
natural born houserocker with a whole lot of soul that he brings to the
bandstand night after night. Coming off a highly successful whirlwind tour
with Kenny Wayne Shepherd's blues revue, and featured in Shepherd blues
documentary
"Ten Days Out",
Lee is primed and ready to
unleash his own intensely passionate brand of blues power on tour this
summer. Bryan Lee is a true New Orleans name with over 30 years performing
on Bourbon Street. Blind since birth, Bryan is a unique presence in the
blues touring circuit.
Tickets: $15.00; BCB Members with card, $10.00
And if you really want a taste of New Orleans, literally, phone the Bruce Bar and Grill and join us for dinner from a special Creole Menu Chef Craig has put together just for this show! Dinner reservations accepted up to 7:00 pm. 519-396-5100 |

| Blues During Reunion 2008 The 2008 Reunion Committee is providing a varied mix of music entertainment during the four days of festivities and they haven't ignored the blues!. Kicking off the party on Thursday, July 31, is the Western Warm-up Party organized by our Western Chapter President, Jas Webster. This event is being held at the Pavilion and features Breakwater Blues. Unfortunately, if you weren't one of the lucky ones to scoop a ticket earlier this spring, you'll have to sit this one out as its all sold out. You can still catch Breakwater Blues and Dark Angel, both playing in the Beach Reunion Tent in the afternoon of Saturday August 2 with the blues starting at 1:00 pm. Another local favourite that will have some blues in their playlist is Reload who will be getting you dancin' in the Pavilion on Saturday afternoon starting at 1:00 pm. And if you still have money in your pocket come Monday night, The Bruce Bar and Grill is bringing Breakwater Blues to their parking lot stage. You can watch the spectacular fireworks from the Bruce patio, the best view of the harbour and then listen and dance to a spectacular reunion finale by Breakwater Blues that will feature the special line-up of "Feet" McLeod, Robbie McLeod, "Weed" Cuyler, Greg Dechert and Mike Sloski. The Bruce will also have other entertainment throughout Reunion weekend on their special parking lot stage and we're sure there'll be a nice mix of music artists for those looking for a break from the Reunion Tent. Watch here for details or check out their website http://brucebar.com/ . |
