BluesView: Cool March Gigs

BluesView: Cool March Gigs

By Earl Matthews

Hello everyone. March is here and there are lots of options so let hit some highlights. On the 2nd you have 4 cool shows to check out Voodoo Killer at the Brave Bull if you like Blues Rock. Tony and the Tuff TImes at Barkin’ Dog if you like Chi-Town Blues. Poorhouse Millionaires up in Sonora for the Foothill folks or give a listen to Ava Grace at Rivvi’s for some piano-driven soul.
Starting March 9th and every Saturday for the rest of the month you can catch Tony and the Tuff Times doing a residency at Ridgways.
Stockton folks should go hear Jeramy Norris and the Dangerous Mood at Jessup’s Dream Rides on the 10 for the 40th annual Poker Run. On the 16th you can start your morning off with Ava Grace at Deva and then catch a dinner set at Rivvi’s in Oakdale by the Poorhouse Duo.
The Gallo Center is hosting a Blues Brothers Review on the 21st, this looks like a lot of fun. I may try to check that one out.
I will be taking the Poorhouse Millionaires to The Cow Track on the 22nd to shake things up a bit. I will be inviting some special guests to join in, it should be fun. Ava Grace will be performing with a full band at the 50’s Roadhouse during the day on the 23rd and Poorhouse Millionaires are headed to Ralston’s Goat that night.
I am hosting my monthly Blues Jam at Fired Up Grill in Ceres on the 27th. Bring your axe and sit in with the band. Ending the month with a bang is Jeramy Norris up in Mokelumne Hill at the Hotel Ledger. It’s a sweet place with a lot of history. Perfect for an overnight getaway.
Take care everyone and I hope to see you out at a show.
