2010 Rocks!

ArtsWarrior is looking forward to a great year, and we started off with a bang! R-Gang helped usher in a new life for the Braglia couple at their New Year's Eve wedding bash at the Westin in Rosemont. Guitarra Azul celebrated Spanish-Style, at Cafe Iberico's New Year's Eve celebration in downtown Chicago. 1969 hosted their annual Hippie New Year celebration at Walter Payton's Roundhouse and had patrons young and young-at-heart all dancing together like it was 1969!

Catch for all these bands at upcoming venues near you!

Guitarra Azul rang in 2010 at Cafe Iberico in downtown Chicago.
The place was packed and the party was rockin!

Grana Louise moved up to the semi-finals after
taking top prize in Chicago at Buddy Guy's Legends

Graná Returns to Holland

According to a reporter for the Windy City Blues Society, Graná Louise & Troublemaker blew the roof off "The Ground Zero Club" at the semi-final round of the 2010 International Blues Competition in Memphis.  Graná was there representing the city of Chicago, after winning a city-wide competition at the famed "Buddy Guy's Legends". Competition was stiff in Memphis, with over 100 bands from around the world competing. Top prize in the Band competition went to Grady Champion, who was sponsored by Mississippi Delta Blues Society. But all was not lost, not by a long shot. Graná turned plenty of heads in Memphis, and she wastes no time as she gets back on the road to head back to Holland in late February, to finish a DVD project started in Amsterdam last fall.
