JOHNNY WINTER ADDED TO 1998 PITTSBURGH BLUES FESTIVAL
PITTSBURGH -- Blues icon Johnny Winter has been added to the 1998 Pittsburgh Blues Festival as the headliner for Saturday, July 11, 1998. This will be Winter's first Pittsburgh appearance in five years.
The Pittsburgh Blues Festival is an annual three-day event celebrating the best in national and local blues music. In addition to presenting outstanding musical entertainment, the Festival serves as a major fund-raising event for the Greater Pittsburgh Community Food Bank. The event has raised more than $80,000 to feed the hungry since its inception.
Diversity will be the buzzword for this year's event. Other headliners for this year's event include Susan Tedeschi (July 10), and the Brian Setzer Orchestra (July 12). Additional national recording artists scheduled to appear are Los Straitjackets, The Atomic Fireballs, Five Blind Boys from Alabama, Big Dave & the Ultrasonics and Jimmy Thackery & the Drivers. Several local blues bands will also be featured performers.
Over a career spanning 30 years, Winter has developed a fiercely loyal following across the globe. His most recent album -- Live in NYC '97 -- was developed as a tribute to his fans. Winter polled his fan club members and asked them to choose the songs for the live album. He will now bring that renowned live show to the Pittsburgh Blues Festival.
"Adding Johnny Winter to this year's Festival is a real coup for us," explained Ron "Moondog" Esser, musical director for the event. "Whether you count Grammy nominations or sold out shows, he has had a great run for more than 30 years. If you haven't seen him play, you really need to get out to the Amphitheatre for this one. Johnny Winter and Brian Setzer in one weekend...that's quite a show!"
