Our Vision
The
vision of the Baton Rouge Blues Fundation is to have Baton Rouge
recognized for its blues heritage and culture and bring the best of
Louisiana blues music to the world.
Our History
The
Baton Rouge Blues Foundation was founded in 2002. A non-profit
organization, the Foundation sponsors the Music in the Schools Program,
the Baton Rouge Blues Foundation Awards and Baton Rouge Blues Week. Sparked
and guided by a newly-developed Strategic Plan, the Foundation opened
its doors to a general membership on August 31, 2006, with a very
successful JAM session at Phil Brady’s. The JAM was
hosted by Tab Benoit and included performances by Chris Belleau, Bobby
Campo, Buddy Flett, Henry Gray, Herman Jackson, Deacon John, Luther
Kent, Andy Pizzo and Tabby Thomas.

Baton Rouge Blues Foundation is a proud sponsor of KBRH-AM and WBRH-FM's Buffet Program. The Buffet airs each Saturday at 2 p.m on 1260 AM and 90.3 FM. The show features biographical sketches and music of performing artists and is written, produced and hosted by students of the radio training program of Baton Rouge Magnet High School.
