Slide and Blues Guitar Virtuoso and 2-time Grammy Award Winner and the Delta Rhythm kinds (Jimmy Sanchez on drums and Steve Ehrmann on bass) delivered a stellar performance to a crowd of about 220 which left everybody thrilled and exhilerated. Famed saxophonist Terry Hanck was a surprise guest and joined Roy, Jimmy and Steve for the last set of the 90 minute show.
The concert was the first in our new Concert Series aimed to increase support four our programs. It was sponsored by the Marriott Hotel on Okeechobee Blvd., Amici Bar and Restaurant on Palm Beach island, the new BB Kings restaurant at City Place, and Asset Advisory, Cotleur and Hearing, the Mallory Law Group, Wolfe Guitars and Blue Dolphin Research and Consulting (all of Jupiter).
The funds provided were used to provide a significant number of complimentary tickets to two local organizations: Forgotten Soldiers Outreach and the Florida Outreach Center for the Blind.
We also like to thank the South Florida Blues Society and Charlie Hoyer from JazzBluesFlorida for their support in promoting the event. |
