Hello everyone, I hope you are ready for spring because it is here already and that means it’s time to get yourself ready for some outdoor fun and music. Getting things kicked off this monthevery Thursday is Jeramy Norris and the Dangerous Mood hosting their weekly open Blues Jam at Garlic Brothers in Stockton. Jeramy and the boys will be back again on the 4th for a second night at Garlic Brothers, as well.

On the 5th the Turlock Community Theater welcomes Tommy Castro and the Painkillers and Elvin Bishop. Both Tommy and Elvin are mainstays of the San Francisco blues scene as well as international stars. This promises to be one of the best shows of the month.
On the 10th The Jazzy Blue Review will be returning to Deva Cafe, hosted by Rob Hill Band and this month featuring Patty Davis and yours truly Big Earl Matthews from 7-10pm.
On the 12th Roy Rogers and the Delta Rhythm Kings will be up at Black Oak Casino. Roy is a true legend in his time and one of the best pickers around. Definitely worth the drive, admission is free.

On the 13th Blues guitar slinger Shane Dwight will be right in our back yard at Moss Landing Inn at 3pm. Shane is a mainstay on the Blues festival circuit and puts on a great show.
On the 20th Jeramy Norris will be out in the Stockton Delta on Moore’s Riverboat for an afternoon show starting at 2pm. On that very same day Big Earl and the Cryin’ Shame will be at Nino’s in Modesto from 2pm-6pm.
Finishing the month off will be a couple more shows from Rob Hill Band: on the 27th they will be at Deva Café for a Jazzy Blue Sunday Breakfast and then over at the Twisted Pig on the 31st from 7-10pm.
I hope you all have a great month and make sure to go out and support the places in our community who support music. I hope to see you out at a show.
