Blues In The Schools (BITS) is back and getting ready for the school year! Do you have a child, grandchild, niece/nephew, or a friend with school age children, who would benefit from showcasing this remarkable music, its history, and its far-reaching impact on our culture?
Are you a teacher, or do you know a teacher or school administrator interested in bringing a professional Blues musician into a school and lighting up kids’ faces while imparting the important role that the Blues has played in American culture and music?
Please help us expand this successful program by increasing our reach. Click this link https://www.coblues.org/bits to be able to download a brochure describing the BITS program, how it works, and contact information. Share this brochure with all who might be even remotely interested or connected to developing interest in roots music within our youth and to preserve this uniquely American art form.
Bring BITS up at your next blues jam, festival, barrel house gathering, at your local juke joint or rent party. Be part of keeping the blues alive for generations to come.
