Alligator recording artist Marcia Ball, the queen of swamp-blues and boogie woogie piano, will be making a live appearance in the KVRX studios on Blues At Sunrise this Wednesday, April 10, from 8-9 AM. Ball is a Grammy nominee and multiple Blues Award winner, and has a new album out on Alligator titled Peace, Love & BBQ.

Thanks to the efforts of guest DJs Jonathan from Leather and Lace and the Rev. Get-Down from the Afro-Boogaloo Soul Revue, Blues At Sunrise has been going strong throughout the Winter interim break at KVRX. Special thanks to these fine gentlemen for keeping the blues alive these past several weeks!

This Wednesday (12/12) on Blues At Sunrise from 7-9 AM, DJ Smokehouse Brown will be giving away tickets to see legendary 94-year old Chicago blues pianist Pinetop Perkins.
