Silver Spring Plays the Blues
I was thrilled to attend the Silver Spring Blues Festival in Downtown Silver Spring this weekend. Organized by the Silver Spring Town Center, Inc., and the DC Blues Society, the Festival featured a broad range of blues performers from the fifteen year old guitar phenom, Andy Poxon, to nationally-known keyboardist, Daryl Davis, to the Festival headliners, the legendary “Nighthawks! Also on the program were Silver Spring’s favorite son, Jonny Grave, Choo Choo Charlie Williams and Baltimore Red Jones, the DC Blues Society Band, and Mary Shaver and the Smokin’ Polecats. The Festival was videotaped by Montgomery Community Television, Inc. It was wonderful to see the great turnout by Montgomery County blues fans.
