Floridian Bluesman, Selwyn Birchwood Band, Wins at Blues Music Awards!

The 36th Annual Blues Music Awards, presented by The Blues Foundation, was held at the Cook Convention Center in downtown Memphis, Tennessee, on Thursday, May 7, 2015. The Blues Music Awards are universally recognized as the highest accolade afforded blues music performers. The annual Blues Music Awards ceremony is the premier event for blues professionals, musicians, and fans from all over the world.

Jazz & Blues Florida was NOT there due to HOTWIRE.COM travels arrangements that were not honored. Please remember this next time you need to be somewhere and are considering using their services.

Congratz to Selwyn and the band, and all the winners!
