PERFORMANCES BY:
- Heartless Saints laying down a killer blues groove! with special guest Greg Wilson
- Shawn Kellerman Band – deeply rooted in blues but incorporates elements of funk, rock, and soul. Their 2024 album, Kell’s Kitchen, showcases this fusion, featuring tracks with southern gospel rhythms and influences from artists like Jeff Beck and Jimi Hendrix . Collaborations on the album include blues legends such as Bobby Rush and harmonica virtuoso Jason Ricci.
- The Suagr Darlings – Bringing a dynamic blend of Blues, Soul, Funk and Rock n’ Roll.
The band is fronted by the charismatic Miche Love, who has been a staple in the Montreal blues scene for several years. Her powerful and sonorous voice balances the nostalgia of classic Soul and Gospel singers like Aretha Franklin and Etta James, with all the charms of contemporary pop, rock and funk music.
The group uniquely features a lead tandem of Paul Lucyk (The Franklin Electric, Midnight Miles) on guitar and Kaven Jalbert (Dawn Tyler Watson, Ben Racine band) on saxophone, nominated for Horn Player of the Year at the Maple Blues Awards 2019. The two color the arrangements with clever and animated lead lines and solos, that are sure to electrify any crowd.
