Summer Blues 2024 in Lugano und Rheinfelden
Text zum Blues? – Vergleiche deutsche Wiki und englische Wiki
Im Sommer 2024 sind zwei Blues-Festivals zu vermerken – in Lugano, das ist in der Schweiz – und in Dreyland: das sind Rheinfelden, Schopfheim und Wehr an der Grenze zur Schweiz.
Umso überraschter darfst du sein, wen es noch kennenzulernen und zu entdecken gibt.
(Vielleicht lässt sich das noch vertiefen …)
Blues to Bop Festival
Lugano 18.07.-21.07.2024
