Blues Festival lineup announced

NORWICH – The Chenango County Blues Association has announced the schedule for the 2010 Chenango County Blues Festival, the eighteenth annual, to be held Aug.20 and 21 at the Chenango County Fairgrounds.

Grammy nominated Alligator Records recording artist and blues pianist Marcia Ball, the headliner for the 2006 festival, will return in that role to the main stage this year in support of her latest release, “Peace, Love and BBQ,” in addition to the return of 2005 acoustic stage guitarist and vocalist EG Kight.

The Asamu Johnson Project, John Nemeth, Guitar Shorty and Watermelon Slim will round out the main stage performances, while Dom Flemons and John Hammond will fill out the acoustic stage schedule.

“We’re excited about this lineup, as we always are,” said President of the Chenango County Blues Association Board of Directors Eric Larsen. “We do extensive searching of available artists to make sure we represent a wide variety of styles, and that went very well this year.”
