October 14/16
Crossroads kicks off the October dual feature – celebrating roots of rock pioneer Chuck Berry, who turns 90 this month, and remembering Buckwheat Zydeco, who helped popularize zydeco music – the unique roots and blues sound from Louisiana.
The show also highlights music from the newly named 2016 Blues Blast Music Awards winners and features music from a number of blues artists with concerts in the coming week, including musicians performing at this year’s Blues Masters at the Crossroads.
