The Greytown Arts Festival will present an evening of Blues music at Cafe Trends on Sunday 24th January. Festival convenor, Kate McWiggins, writes that it will focus “on the history of the Blues in America from its origins in the plantation fields through Gospel and the country Blues of the Mississippi Delta to the electric Blues of today. You can expect three strong sets progressing through the evolution of the music genre.”
The show will feature “some of our best Wairarapa Blues musicians, including Bob Cooper-Grundy, Kate Marshall and Pat McKenna. Peter Icke of Cafe Trends will be providing food and drink from 5 p.m. onwards.” Music starts at 7.
Tickets cost $15 and are available from undertheradar, Greytown Library, and the Martinborough and Masterton i-sites.
Cafe Trends is on Main Street North, SH2, just outside Greytown.
