The Blues Angel Music Blues on the Bay Concert Series returns to the Community Maritime Park for a second season Sunday, May 3 from 6-8 p.m. The Modern Eldorados will open the series.
Founded by Tyron “Gretsch†Lyles in 1996, the Modern Eldorados “uncompromising sound and take no prisoners stage presence doesn’t follow trends, but on the contrary stays true to the roots of American while infusing it with individual swagger. “
“Blues Angel Music is extremely delighted to once again be sponsoring the Blues on the Bay summer concert series. In this the second year of the series, we have broadened the band selections to include genres other than strictly Blues. We have a really exciting and diverse lineup, including several “Tribute” bands (Elton john and the Beatles), Blues, R&B/Soul/Funk, Oldies, Retro Country, Classic rock, and Jazz. We’re also planning on having several musical guests at some of the performances. All of this year’s performers are known for their very high energy shows. You won’t just hear music…you’re also going to see a very entertaining musical show,†said Blues Angel Music store owner Jim DeStafney.
