| Comment | Seattle's Crossroads Blues Band, voted best band of 2005 by the Washington Blues Society, features harmonica ace Steve Bailey, and former Rose City guitar slinger Dan Newton.
In addition to the band's opening set on the main stage July 4, Bailey will be featured on the Harmonica Blow-off that evening on the Front Porch Stage. STEVE BAILEY is truly a Northwest Blues Pioneer, starting his Seattle performing career in the late 1960's. Bailey was a mainstay of the original Public Market Blues scene, and the list of musicians that have played in his bands reads like a who's who of the Northwest Blues. A triple-threat performer on vocals, guitar, and harp, Bailey is also an accomplished songwriter, as well as running his own recording studio. Bailey's recordings with "The Blue Flames" took him on multiple tours to Europe and Japan, and he was the mastermind behind the international hit album, "Northwest Harmonica Showcase." From Memphis soul to rollicking New Orleans gumbo, Bailey keeps Crossroads crowds dancing. |
