The Mohawk Valley Blues Society was founded in March 2005 by an enthusiastic group of area blues and roots music fans. The organization got off to a fast start and has grown to over 100 members strong. By hosting monthly blues jams, and presenting concerts by the Holmes Brothers, C.J. Chenier and the Red Hot Lousiana Band, Coco Montoya, Duke Robillard and Jerry Portnoy, the blues society has brought a new energy to the region.
