EARLY SUNDAY SHOW
We
are proud to announce "Swamp Stomp" is back. It's been several years
since we had Swamp Music brought in from Southwestern Louisiana. The
Galley/Adelphia Music Hall, 203 Second Street, Marietta, has agreed to
open up just for us on Sunday, November 13 with Jeffrey Broussard &
The Zydeco Cowboys performing. The band is one of the top Zydeco acts
touring today. We booked them on a routing date on a Sunday for a
reasonable price.
The Galley has
agreed to a limited menu which will include some Cajun specials. Doors
open at 4 PM, dance instruction starts at 4:30 PM and showtime is 5 PM.
Jeffery and his band will perform two 75 minute sets. We need your
support for this show so we can continue to bring you these most
desirable art forms. If you have never been to the Galley/Adelphia Music
Hall, you will be impressed with the venue. It was built as a music
venue and not an afterthought.
Cover charge is $15 per person or $25 per couple. Advance tickets may be purchased at The Galley, or by calling 740-374-8278,
or by going online to "thegalleymarietta.com." Tickets will also be

About The Blues, Jazz & Folk Music Society
The Blues, Jazz & Folk Music
Society is a non-profit, 501 (c) 3 all-volunteer "force" of music
enthusiasts on a mission to enhance the appreciation of American Roots
Music in the Mid-Ohio Valley and we do it by presenting concerts,
workshops, conferences, and a forum for education and development in the
schools.
The BJFM Society celebrates and perpetuates blues and
roots music as a traditional, evolutionary, and uniquely American art
form. During the grant period, we will continue to present live music in
genres not normally available in a small town like ours, to educate and
expose our audiences to music new and unfamiliar to many of them. Our
goal is to keep blues, jazz and roots music alive in our area.
With the help of volunteers from our membership, and an
8-member board of directors, the BJFM
Society will continue to produce and present our "core events" plus
other shows throughout the year as the opportunity presents itself. The
BJFM Society has also undertaken the expense of production and
presentation of the nationally recognized multicultural "Blues in the
Schools" program here in our local schools
The Blues, Jazz & Folk Music Society Board of Directors:
John Bolen - President
Steve Wells - Vice President, Director of "Blues in The Schools"
Peg Bolen - Treasurer
