Presented by Hornby Island Blues Society

The Hornby Island Blues Odyssey is a unique stage show with a “once only” revue of blues musicians showcasing their deep individual talents through extraordinary live-jam energy. It boasts the largest blues revue in Western Canada making it the concert choice of thousands of music fans each year.

Now in its 16th year the Odyssey continues to tour the best Blues and Roots players in Canada. With multiple Maple Blues and JUNO winners, the 2015 Hornby Island Blues Odyssey showcases the incredible guitarists JW.Jones, Paul Pigat, Rick Fines, Jack de Keyzer, Paul Deslauriers and Denis Coulombe. On vocals is reigning Maple Blues queen Angel Forrest. On keyboards Julian Fauth, on Bass Suzie Vinnick, on harp maple Blues winner Harpdog Brown  and on drums Chris Nordquist.

After working as instructors all week at the Hornby Island Blues Workshop and firming up their groove in two mid-week concerts on the island, these ten world-class musicians are ready to bring you a one-night-only performance exclusive to the Sid theatre. The 2015 Hornby Island Blues Odyssey will entertain you with three hours of all the Blues you love – Memphis, Delta, or Country; and whatever blues shake you down, be they jump, juke or barrelhouse. This quite simply is the best Blues review that you will see this year.
