Huron Rotary Festival is changing. Everyone knows it as the Rib Cook-off with bluegrass music plus the 45th annual Huron Rotary Art Festival. We will still have the Art Festival but the bluegrass music is gone and we now have a variety of food to taste. We will talk about the food next week but this week is about the music. So the music will be different starting with Friday night. Old rock will be the mainstay. The Clique Band out of Sandusky will open up the night at 6 pm. Get ready for a Motown experience and other great music. Then at 8 pm Re-Beats come on stage. Their first set will be British invasion; Herman’s Hermits, Dave Clark Five, plus lots of other stuff. Second set is strictly Beatles. Check out the costumes. Right out of the Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club album. This will be a great night. Now there is Saturday and the Blues plus some really heavy rock. We go right to the well with one of the premier guitarist on the North Coast, Alan Greene. Check him out. He was a part of the bands, Humble Pie and Breathless. Featured on many recordings by Michael Stanley, Humble Pie, Donnie Iris, Breathless, and Pere Ubu. He goes on at 4 pm. Then we switch to a strong favorite of ours, who played here last year, Deja Voodoo. Known as Northeast Ohio’s Premier Rockin’ Blues Band. They have a strong sound that kicks it up a notch when ever they come out to the Huron Boat Basin. The band says they love the sound they can get by the water. Deja Voodoo comes on stage at 6 pm. Last but definitely not least is the Frankie Starr Band. What a way to end the night. Heavy blues by the master. No messing around with lots of other sounds, BLUES!! Frankie has opened for many of the greats, B.B. King, Stevie Ray Vaughan, Joe Walsh, Buddy Guy, Ted Nugent, plus many others. He has been out here numerous times and each time you learn why he is considered so highly in the music scene in Cleveland. ENJOY. So if you are looking for some great music, food, beverages plus you can buy that early Christmas gift at the art festival come on down to the Huron Rotary Festival on Friday, August 12 and Saturday, August 13. It’s at the Huron Boat Basin. Hope to see you there.
