By 2 Left Feet Blues Festival

Are you ready for some great music? 

We are! And we are pleased to announce that Albert Castiglia will be joining us on Sept. 13 at the 2 Left Feet Blues Festival.

Castiglia made his professional debut in 1990 when he joined the Miami Blues Authority. He was named 'Best Blues Guitarist' in Miami in 1997 by New Times magazine, a local alternative paper. 

His first big break came about when legendary harmonica player Junior Wells heard him sing and play and immediately hired him for his touring band. Castiglia accompanied Wells on several world tours. 

He struck out on his own and released his debut, Burn, in 2002, collaborating on the album with his friend Graham Wood Drout. He followed up with his 2006 release for New Jersey-based Blues Leaf Records, A Stone's Throw

The fun starts at 11 a.m. in Berg’s Field in East Hartland. Advanced sale general admission tickets are $30 plus a $3 online service fee and must be purchased by Sept. 8. Tickets at the gate are $40.
