RED, WHITE and BLUES: America's Music Then and Now

Bob Messano, Songwriter and Blues Musician (best known to our audiences as 'Guitar Bob') presents a special concert on Thursday June 30 @ 7:00 at the Springfield Free Public Library.

"American music is music 'of the people, by the people, and for the people.' The blues style is especially rooted in ordinary people's everyday struggles and triumphant survival. As Americans today work to improve their lives abd honor their country, guitarist/singer/songwriter Bob Messano reacquaints us with our musical heritage and brings contemporary issues into focus through his original songs.

Join Guitar bob for an enjoyable evening featuring vintage guitars, wailing harmonicas, and an electrifying performance, back by popular demand!
