“one of the most original and inventive singer-songwriters in blues today.” – Colin Linden

Paul Reddick did not disappoint. He and his fabulous band provided an evening of original blues by one of Canada’s best.


jack de keyzeraugust 27, 2022

The late, great Jeff Healey called him the “finest blues guitarist in Canada.”

Jack brought a world class show to the blues barn. What a fabulous way to end our 2022 Blues Series. It was a sold out show full of great performances by everyone in the band.


We were lucky to have all of these great bands come and play in the county. It was a lot of fun for us all.

Thank you to all of you who have supported the blues barn this year.
