Blues Festival Weekend - A 3-Day Funk


The Fargo Blues Festival begins this weekend and is now in its 14th year of pulling quality national acts into town. That's 14 years well spent, in our book. This year, the Blues Fest brings in slide virtuoso Sonny Landreth and the pyrotechnic blues/rock of Indigenous, among others, and promises another quality year of entertainment.

We're putting on a weekend of blues in the HoDo Lounge to compliment the festival. Thursday at 8:30 p.m. and Friday at 10:30 p.m., come out to see our old friends the Blue Wailers. Saturday at 10:30 p.m., Stage Door Johnny (featuring members of the Deb Jenkins Band) will rock the joint the day after their afternoon show at the festival. If blue is your favorite color, this is the weekend for you. All shows no cover, 21+.

*RSVP for these events on Facebook here, here, and here.
