Cincy Blues Fest with Webb Wilder, Sista Monica, Super Chikan and much more
By all accounts (from people who actually attended or
performed), last month’s huge Bunbury Music Festival was one of the
best-run fests of its kind this area has ever seen. Organizer Bill
Donabedian no doubt scored some tips from the operators of the big
annual Blues celebration, the volunteer-driven Cincy Blues Fest, which
has been doing the “well-run music festival” thing at Sawyer Point Park
along the riverfront for many years now. This weekend, the Cincy Blues
Fest — one of the finest Blues events in the Midwest — returns to Sawyer
Point to celebrate its 20th anniversary, a rare and remarkable
achievement for any music festival. This year’s main stage national
headliners are especially strong — Webb Wilder on Friday and Duke
Robillard on Saturday — but the Cincy Blues Fest always has a ton of
interesting and engaging artists performing throughout the fest’s
multiple stages.
