Blues fans, check out the Magnum Emergency Fund section on Kickstarter. The mainstream media no longer supports this kind of journalism. These dedicated photojournalists are an endangered species who need your help to continue telling their stories.

Has not connected their Facebook account.
Erin Harpe & the Delta Swingers give acoustic blues a new twist to create a genre they call “Charles River Delta Blues”. The Delta Swingers feature: Jim Countryman (also of Lovewhip) on bass; Bob Nisi on drums and vocals; and veteran producer/blues-guy Richard "Rosy" Rosenblatt on harmonica.
Erin and the gang have already been receiving accolades, including recently winning the 2010 Boston Blues Challenge, getting a Boston Music Award nomination for Blues Artist of the Year, as well as having the honor of opening for blues legends Honeyboy Edwards and James Cotton. The band is working hard on their first album, and getting ready for the International Blues Challenge in Memphis in February 2011!
Congratulations!
Congrats to you all and have fun in Memphis!
