Blues Alive

Another great weekend of Blues: The EBU in its efforts to reach out widely to the European Blues community was invited to the Blues Alive (https://www.bluesalive.cz/) festival in Sumperk in the eastern part of the Czech Republic during 17-19 November.

At its 26th (!) edition, this festival can no doubt be considered legendary, and has quite rightly earned the respected Blues Foundation‘s KBA Award in 2019.
