About

Orkney Blues was established in 2006 to develop and maintain a first class Blues Festival in the Orkney Islands. The committee is made up of local artists and blues enthusiasts and is supported by local businesses.

Orkney Blues has grown since then and we look forward to our biggest festival yet in 2011.
