This is the 32nd Year of the International Blues Challenge and over 200 acts will descend on Memphis TN to via for the title of the best, but also to network.  Record companies, promoters, club and festival bookers and more attend the event.  Careers have been made during IBC week.

Day 1 of the Challenge.  By the time we go on aire, the Challenge will have begun and we will hear from some of the early performing acts.

We'll be talking all week with those musicians in town for the Challenge.  Musicians in to network and see old friends, blues society folks who come to support their acts, Blues Foundation officials and the FANS! 

You can even call in and talk to your favorite band when they are on air...
