Join us for a musical program that traces the evolution of the blues from its rural Southern roots to its electric and urban transformation. Guided by guitarist and vocalist David B. Cole, the show will unfold as a living history lesson—told through sound, storytelling, and stylistic shifts. Country blues will evoke the raw emotional landscapes of early blues traditions. Sparse rhythms, call-and-response phrasings, and heartfelt vocals echo the experiences of rural life. Between songs, artists will offer brief reflections on the origins of the blues, the role of oral tradition, and the music’s connection to everyday struggle and resilience.
