Grand County Blues Society is at it again! If you’ve never heard of the Grand County Blues Society, you’re missing out on some of the most passionate Blues supporters out there. Once or twice a month these guys bring the Blues to Winter Park by hosting a great band at our very own Smokin’ Moes Ribhouse and Saloon, located in Cooper Creek Square. Check out their website where you can read more about what they do and check out upcoming shows. The shows are always a blast; be ready to dance to some fabulous live music and enjoy Smokin’ Moes’ famous ribs.
If you take a break from tearing up the dance floor during the show, track down one of the Blues Society members with your questions about blues music , you won’t be disappointed! This Saturday, they’re hosting John Richardson and the Jelly Roll Bakers (Johnny O and Andy Irvine) at 9pm. You can check out a quick bio about these guys on the Blues Society website.
Hope to see you there!

It is a great way to get up to the Colorado Rocky Mountains and hear some great jazz. This is the 26th year of the Jazz Fest and if you haven’t been up to see the shows you are missing out!
Yeah! Part of the line-up of the 2009 Winter Park Jazz Festival has already been announced, with more artists still to be announced in the coming weeks. Since I’ve lived in Winter Park, the Jazz Fest line-up hasn’t been announced until late May or early June, so this is a record!
I’m not a really big Jazz music fan, so I can’t tell you much about these artists, but I can say that the Jazz Fest weekend is one of the most happenin’ weekends of the summer in Winter Park. I love going to the shows and being out in the action. Last year was a great time, the weather was perfect and I was introduced to some really good Jazz performers, like Kelly Sweet and Dave Koz (pictured here).
Oh, I almost forgot. Winter Park Lodging by Owner has some premier condos in a prime location for the Jazz Fest. They’re called the Trailhead Lodge condos, and they’re so close to the festival grounds, you can even watch the festival from the balcony one of them. Plus, they’re finishing up an outdoor pool and hot tubs this summer – we’ve heard they’ll be ready by July!
Here is what we know so far:
Saturday, July 25th
Sunday, July 26th
- Boney James
- Sax for Stax
- Rippingtons
