Wednesday Night Blues at Charly's

The NAZBA Wednesday Night Blues Jam at Charly's has a great lineup for the month of July, featuring 5 Wednesdays for your listening and dancing pleasure!

First up from Phoenix is Big Daddy D, Darryl Porras. A dynamic guitarist, recently inducted into the Blues Hall of Fame® (Arizona), and was also in the Cros Band, a 2022 International Blues Challenge runner up. An added bonus if you can't make this Wednesday evening at Charly's please find your way to the McMillan Mesa Park in Flagstaff as the band will be playing outdoors for the Flagstaff Concerts in the Park series, from 5:30-7:30PM. PLEASE NOTE after the Concerts in the Park show, there will be a late start at Charly's, beginning at 8:00PM to 10:30PM!

The second week features two well-known Prescott band leaders, Chicago Bob on harmonica/vocals and Dennis Herrera on guitar/vocals, noting Dennis's previous induction into the Blues Hall of Fame® (California). Always a fun show with a great mixture of old school Chicago style Blues along with Texas Blues.

The middle Wednesday brings in the fabulous vocalist and also recent Blues Hall of Fame® (Arizona) inductee Ms. Renee Rice or Simply Renee, coming up from Sedona. Accompanying here on keys is the incomparable Les Paul Roque from Phoenix, who was Billy Paul's (Me and Mrs. Jones) musical director for seven years and is just a powerhouse on the leys!

The fourth Wednesday features a young Phoenix guitarist originally from the Netherlands, Rinus "Rino" Pauel and represents the upcoming generation of Blues artists and gives the audience a great blend of Blues Rock tunes and even has some new renditions of old standards!

Rounding out the last Wednesday of the month, is a familiar face from Flagstaff, S.E. (Steve) Willis, who tickles the keys in some wonderful ways, that will give you a nice flavor of New Orleans. Steve has played on tour, notably, with Elvin Biship for many years, and is an inductee in the Arizona Blues Hall of Fame. You wlll be wanting to dance during all of his show, so bring your dancing shoes! After the first set, we bring jammers on stage to play with the featured artists and that's when the fun begins! Nothing is scripted, so what you'll hear is the art of improvization! No pitch correct, harmonizers, click tracks, or backing tracks!

All the shows are one of kind! While at Charly's, please indulge in libations and some great food offerings, with excellent service! We are there to have fun and we WANT you to have fun too!
