Coloma Blues Live Festival June 7th
May 14th, 2008 by Malina
Our sleepy little valley is going to reverbarate with the soulful sounds of another music festival! Either buy a ticket or get out some earplugs because the Coloma Blues Festival is back for another day of stompin’ guitar licks, screamin’ harmonica, and serious singing.
The headliner this year is none other than Los Lobos! Earlier in the day Alan Cummings, the Tommy Castro band, and others will warm up the crowd and keep the tunes flowing.
The festival will be held next to the South Fork of the American River in Henningson-Lotus park. For more info, or to buy tickets online, check out the
festival website.
Local accomodations are less than a mile away–check out Camp Lotus or the Lotus Inn . And it probably goes without saying that if you go to the Blues Festival on Saturday, you’re right in the neighborhood for an American River rafting trip……wash the blues away with some sweet sweet whitewater……
