The 3rd Annual Central Florida Blues Challenge

It's your chance to perform with the best Blues Bands and Solo/Duo Acts at the local level to earn the opportunity to represent the Central Florida Blues community at the:
Blues Foundation's 26th International Blues Challenge
held January 20th - 23rd, 2010 - in Memphis, Tennessee. Website at: www.blues.org

~ People's Choice Award
~ Best Blues Band in Central Florida
In addition to the IBC preliminary competition, the Orange Blossom Blues Society will also be presenting a Best Blues Band Award to one of the participating performers.

The IBC has evolved into the nation's largest and most respected showcases for Blues musicians ready to take their act to the national stage. The IBC can be described as a "Battle of the Bands" in which competitors take the stage and play a short 20 minute set for a panel of judges-judged on Blues content, Talent, Originality and Stage presence.

The IBC represents an international search by The Blues Foundation and it's Affiliated Organizations (comprised mostly of blues societies) for the Blues Band and Solo/Duo Blues Act deemed ready to perform on a national stage that just need that extra break.

The list of current blues artists that have competed in the IBC over the years is impressive indeed: Slick Ballinger, Barbara Blue, Fiona Boyes, Eden Brent, Keith Brown, Michael Burks, Sean Carney, Albert Castiglia, Tommy Castro, the late Sean Costello, Albert Cummings, Delta Moon, Larry Garner, Joey Gilmore, Diunna Greenleaf, Zac Harmon, Homemade Jamz Blues Band, Richard Johnston, Joe Moss, Jason Ricci, Robin Rogers, Matthew Skoller, Super Chikan, Patrick Sweany, Susan Tedeschi, Watermelon Slim, the late John Weston and Michelle Wilson.
