Hi Blues Fans!
Well, the lineup is out and tickets are on sale… what do you think?
I’ve received some feedback which has been good, one that was not happy with our lineup. I was hoping to have our 2020 lineup but many bands told me they weren’t going to tour in 2022, and others just told me no. So I had to find replacements, and I hope they live up to your expectations of our festival. I was really hoping for John Mayall since he announced this would be his last year touring, but he couldn’t commit until May – and I couldn’t take that chance. I hope everyone likes it and is excited to get back together in June!
So in case you missed it, tickets are only available online and tickets will increase April 1st. Tickets will never be this low, so get them now!
VIP tickets are a limited quantity and selling really fast, only 100 are left, so if you want VIP tickets, don’t wait! Wondering why you should go VIP… 2 large shade tents, private bathrooms, private bar, amazing stage views, and Twin Arrows is coming back to feed you all weekend. Friday you’ll get snacks and dinner. Saturday you’ll get snacks, lunch, more snacks and dinner! Not to mention unlimited water, iced tea, lemonade and sodas.
Friday we will have Flagstaff favorite, Sir Harrison followed by Lisa Mann. I am really excited to have Lisa perform, her voice is amazing and she is so nice, I want to hug her when she gets to Flagstaff. Then we have Mr. Sipp – did you know he is nominated for the B.B. King Entertainer of the Year and Contemporary Blues Male Artist? To close out Friday night is Cedric Burnside, and I’ll be honest he gave me chills when I listed to him. CHILLS. Cedric was also just nominated for Best Traditional Blues Male Artist!
Saturday we start the day with Cadillac Assembly Line, also a local favorite. Then Dave Miller and the Other Sinners from Texas hits the stage!!! The horns of Griff Hamlin and the Single Barrel Blues Band is up next, and they are excited!!! The Wesley Pruitt Band is next, also from Texas and again he gave me chills. Dana Fuchs is next and not only is she gorgeous but wow she can sing! And to close the night out, the incredible Anders Osborne!
I’m working on a Thursday night kick off party as well as a Sunday Brunch with even more Blues music. I’m determined to make it 4 days of incredible music!

Until next time…. Jen!
