Memphis...

NOW

January 28th -

February 1, 2020

The IBC Battle of the Bands (BOB) is just around the corner. The Santa Clarita Valley Blues Society is gearing up for our part of the challenge.

We will have both a Band category and a Solo/Duo category as well as a youth band representative going to Memphis this time around.

$2500 will be awarded to the winning band, $500 to the winning Duo/solo act, and we will provide support and fundraising events for all three acts.

The local BOB, as we call it, is scheduled for September 8th at the American Legion

Post 507.

Entry Fee for the Bands is $100, Solo/Duo will be $30.

A Ticketmaster site will be available in August where all bands and Solo/Duo's will have a registration site for their guests to presale tickets.

Five dollars of each pre sold ticket goes back to the act up to the amount of the registration fee. (You could acually compete for free)

The SCVBS is having our competition early this year (Sept 8, 2019) to give us time

to help our acts fundraise. (Other so called Societies don't always do this)

Don't get left out. Get your registration application in now.

Who we are and

what we are about

The Santa Clarita Valley Blues Society was established in 2003 and is one of the younger Blues Societies in the world. We are a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization and we are affiliated with the international organization "The Blues Foundation" in Memphis, Tennessee.

Our mission is to preserve and promote the Blues music art form. We will accomplish this with many ongoing society events. We support the local Santa Clarita Valley Blues Community, the Ventura County Blues Society, and Los Angeles Blues Society through this website.

We will be publishing society-member band links and gig schedules, monthly blues jams and other events as well as fundraisers and concerts.

Come and check us out at our next monthly "2nd Sunday Blues Jam" at the Newhall American Legion Post 507. See our Calendar and Events page for any schedules pertaining to the SCV Blues Society and community.

If you have a passion for the Blues, we would love to have you in our membership. You do not have to be a musician to join, just have an appreciation for the Blues and love to have fun!

Letter From The President

I am truly delighted to be elected President of the Santa Clarita Valley Blues Society. It is a great honor to have received this position. The SCVBS has become a cherished part of my music and social life, and I do feel truly pri-vileged to have the opportunity to serve here.

The new SCVBS board of directors will be taking this organization to its full potential. I feel the SCVBS is in very good order thanks to our past President and Board, and do not plan any major changes. We will, however, always be looking for ways to reach more Blues Lovers out there and welcome many new members to our musical family!

If you love the blues as we do, we welcome you to join us in this endeavor. Your input and involvement will be greatly appreciated. Please feel free to discuss any issues with Vice President Chuck Strong, Secretary Jeri Goldenhar, Treasurer Julie Kuritzkes or any one of our directors.

Our Membership is filled with some of the most talented, caring and thoughtful people in the world - if you need a hand they will lend it, if they have a contact they will share it, and together we will make it happen! That is what makes us strong, that's what will make us healthy, and that is what will make us one of the Best Blues Societies in the World!

The SCVBS board is moving forward with our goals at a brisk pace. Now is the time to jump in and Chair a Committee or Volunteer to help at one of our many functions. Together, we will continue to move forward toward success. Thank You...Steve Brittain Sept. 17, 2018
