7th Annual Blues From The Top Fest This Weekend

Colorado is beautiful country during the summer, and if you're anywhere within a hundred miles of Winter Park, Colorado this coming weekend, you might want to check into the 7th Annual Blues From The Top Fest. The event will be held on Saturday, June 27th and Sunday, June 28th, 2009 at the city's Hideaway Park music venue from 10:30 am until 7:00 pm both days.

Saturday's performers include notable blues guitarist Tab Benoit, soul-blues singer Mike Zito, and bluesman Zac Harmon. Sunday you can experience the talents of blues-rocker Tommy Castro, blustery singer Deanna Bogart, and blues harp player John Nemeth, among others. The Jimmy Hall Super Jam performs on both Saturday and Sunday.

Overnight lodging is also available for blues fans wanting to stay both days. Winter Park is northwest of Denver, and the festival itself is sponsored by the Grand County Blues Society. For a complete list of festival performers, ticket availability, and information on other events over the weekend, check out the Grand County Blues Society website.
