 We are super excited about our first IBC Blues Challenge and the honor to host a band and solo/duo act to the 34th Annual International Blues Challenge in Memphis January 16-20, 2018!!!  This is a tremendous opportunity and we need all of you to spread the word, join your Blues Society and volunteer with your talents!

Gordon Robertson is our IBC Chair and we ask that all requests to enter be sent to him first at grobertson106@gmail.com. You may also call with any questions to 817.368.1604.

Musicians who have NOT been nominated or have not won a Handy/Blues Music Award are eligible!   This will be a regional Challenge for our North Texas Musicians first!!  Others outside our immediate location may be considered but our intention is to first draw from the pool of our very talented Regional musicians.  It will be a sanctioned Challenge and acts must enter their home Society's Challenge (the closest to them) first according to the Blues Foundation's rules.

At least one member of a band or a solo/duo act MUST be a

We plan to hold 2 challenges, one on August 6, 2017 from 1 - 6pm, the location will be announced at a later date.  One will be in the Dallas area and the other in the Ft Worth area.  The second challenge will take place August 13, 2017 from 1-6pm also location TBA.  The finals will take place August 27 also a TBA location.

We'll follow the IBC rules set out by the Blues Foundation. You can find that information here:http://blues.org  We recommend that everyone interested in entering familiarize themselves with these rules.
