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.
