The Ann Arbor Blues Festival and the jazz that followed it
1969
Ann Arbor Blues and Jazz Festival, Ann Arbor, Michigan
Students started the Ann Arbor Blues Festival in 1969 with university backing, and in 1972 it widened into the Ann Arbor Blues and Jazz Festival. It grew from a single outdoor concert into a full weekend that ran seated indoor shows and club sets alongside the daytime bill. The organisation shut down in 2006 after years of financial trouble and volunteers restarted it in 2017.
That was 1 of the hidden places.
