On behalf of Maine’s own very special blues artists, the Town of Naples, local and regional supporters, and our small army of volunteers, we wish to thank each and every one of you for attending this, the ninth Maine Blues Festival. We continue to grow each year and we’re especially proud of being known as an affordable opportunity for music lovers to enjoy an incredible amount of unique music – and all in one beautiful area. This year’s Festival offers patrons more Maine blues performances throughout Naples than ever before, along with our ever-popular free shuttle service, family-friendly environment, artisans and food vendors on the Village Green, and friendly shops and eateries. We exist only because of the dedicated and generous support of our sponsors and advertisers, as well as the dedicated patronage from folks like you. Please take a moment to look at the list of sponsors for 2015, and if you get the chance, be sure to let them know that you appreciate their support in bringing Maine blues home again to Naples. We now plan year-round for this day when thousands of spectators will visit Naples to hear the unmistakable sounds of Maine’s own red-hot blues music: Delta blues, Chicago blues, West Coast blues – saxophones, harmonicas, and deep gravely-toned voices, all wafting through the air, all with the backdrop and laid-back atmosphere of beautiful Naples, Maine – the Heart of the Lakes Region.

C. Handy, the African American leader of a dance orchestra, got stuck one night waiting for a train in the hamlet of Tutwiler, Mississippi. With hours to kill and nowhere else to go, Handy fell asleep at the empty depot on a hard wooden bench. When he woke, a ragged black man was sitting next to him, singing about “goin’ where the Southern cross the Dog” and sliding a knife against the strings of a guitar. The musician repeated the line three times and answered it with his guitar. Intrigued, Handy asked what the line meant. It turned out that the tracks of the Yazoo & Mississippi Valley Railroad, which locals called the Yellow Dog, crossed the tracks of the Southern Railroad in the town of Moorehead, where the musician was headed, and he’d put it into a song.

  • The Blues and Gospel Music Session One: the Blues and Gospel Music
    SESSION ONE: The Blues and Gospel Music Session One: The Blues and Gospel Music Introductory Essay Charles F. McGovern, Associate Professor of American Studies and History, Director of Graduate Studies - American Studies Program, College of William and Mary If American music is unique, it is largely due to its bedrock foundation of blues and gospel music, two forms of music that emerged in the late 19 th and early 20 th century. Anchoring the sounds of African America, these styles underlay the musical innovations of the century: jazz, rhythm and blues, rock, soul and hip hop. They are known and cherished around the world and in every corner of the U.S. It would be impossible to imagine American music without them. The story of black music is also the tale of the enduring social struggles of American history. Blues and gospel, the secular and sacred songs of everyday black folk, are both bound up in sorrow, loss, despair, hope, redemption, resilience and dreams. While remaining recognizable over many decades, the spirit and musical forms of these styles have influenced much of the American music that has followed. The “blue notes” that are characteristic of the form became prominent in country music, rock and roll and jazz. The simple 12 bar A A B form of blues became the template for the first rock and roll songs, from “Good Rockin’ Tonight” to “Rocket 88" to “Hound Dog” to “Johnny B Goode.” And the world wide interest in American blues inspired such musicians as the Beatles, the Rolling Stones and others abroad to not only take up their own instruments, but to re-influence American popular music, borrowing the beat, the form and the sound of the blues and infusing them with new sensibilities.
