🎉 THIRTY YEARS OF BLUES IN FREDONIA — and we're celebrating BIG. 🎉
Since 1996, Red, White & Blues has turned downtown Fredonia into a two-day music takeover — and this year's 30th Anniversary is shaping up to be the best one yet. Save the date: September 11-12, 2026!
Here's why you don't want to miss it:
🎤 Friday night kicks off with Rockabilly Steve & the BR3 at the American Legion (6pm), then Jeremy Keyes Band takes over the Beaver Club at 8pm.
🎤 Saturday is an all-day blues marathon — 10+ bands across 10+ downtown venues, starting at noon with GROSH at Barker Common Gazebo and rolling straight through to Jony James closing things out at Valentine's at 10pm. In between: Jammin' Gypsies, the Buffalo Blues Express All Star Band, Tommy Z, Two Towns, B**r Krate Blues Band, Mark Winsick Band, Growlers Blues Band, The Freeze, and Screamin' East.
Great music. Great food. Cold drinks. Good times. That's the recipe that's kept this festival going for three decades — and it's why downtown Fredonia comes alive every September.
So grab your crew, plan your route, and get ready to bar-hop your way through 30 years of blues history. 🎸
