A start to a new year, and the preparations are already underway at Orkney Blues Festival. Applications for artists closed in January and has attraced significant interest from solo and group blues musicians across the country. We've even received a number from further afield too.
The next big date for our calender of events leading up to the festival, is our annual Choose the Blues night, where fans and stakeholders of Orkney Blues Festival, along with the full committee, get together for a relaxed evening of music and discussion - a review of all applicants.
Orkney Blues Festival would like to once again thank all artists who have applied to play at Orkney Blues Festival. We are confident that our selection will be second to none, and we appreciate your interest.
