followed by a quiet jam session

"Magda Piskorczyk is an excellent, deep-voiced singer - her voice is somewhere between Koko Taylor, Charley Patton, Sister Rosetta Tharpe and Tommy Johnson) - capable of tackling well-known blues, jazz and gospel numbers alongside more contemporary songs from the pens of Jacques Brel, Paul Rodgers ('Muddy Water Blues' is a wonderful performance) and Tracy Chapman, and her style is distinctive, individual and unusual. So too are her arrangements, which certainly avoid the obvious and although they are acoustic-based, can be extremely powerful..."
Norman Darwen CD "Magda Live", BluesArt-Journal

Ken, the Snowman' Minahan returns to Taiwan to grace the stage of the Blues Bash and once again 'Wow!' the audience with his award-winning guitar artistry and his larger-than-life stage presence.

Shun 'Shogun' Kikuta, 9 year veteran of the Koko Taylor Blues Machine, Berkelee College of Music graduate and extraordinary electric Blues guitarist.
