2008-10-04
The idea of the Rawa Blues Festival was introduced in 1980 by Irek Dudek - great musician and blues promoter. The first festival was organized in the Katowice Theater and gathered some twenty blues from all over Poland and 500 blues fans. Fourteen years ago Festival moved into Polish biggest and most famous concert arena "Spodek" and actually became one of the biggest blues festivals in Central Europe. In the past years thousands of blues fans have enjoyed themselves while listening biggest Polish, American and European blues musicians playing 100% live.  The Festival was regularly televised and screened throughout the national TV Network. Among the highlights of past festivals were: Luther Allison. Junior Wells, Koko Taylor, Carey Bell, John Cephas and Phil Wiggins, C. J. Chenier, Rory Block, Little Charlie & The Nightcats, Guitar Shorty, James Blood Ulmer and many others. It's for them that many fans came on "Rawa", to hear the blues from so important artists, to meet people which means so much on blues top, to see blues show that is presented only on key blues festivals around the world.
Among others this year's edition of the festival will feature Debbie Davies, Seth Walker, Samuel James and Shakin Dudi. Venue: Spodek Concert Hall, Katowice |
