Purveyors of Blues, Traditional New Orleans Jazz, Gospel and more...
You made it here, now kick it, sit back, have a ball experiencing the Blues and beyond! Featuring Al B Blue, Valerie Johnson and our incredible musician friends.
Valerie is tearin' it up with The Strata-Tones.
New CD just released!

Have you heard Valerie with The Strata-Tones? YIKES! One of Valerie's latest projects is fronting the most exciting R&B band that people have ever seen come out of the Central Coast; The Strata-Tones. They've been knockin' 'em dead from Santa Barbara to the Monterey County line.
The Karen Tyler Trio. Valerie Johnson & Al Blue are now doing a project with Karen Tyler. We're poppin' up all over the place.

Traditional New Orleans Jazz is your thang, you say? Then get down with the Valerie Johnson & Her King Bees.

Creole Syncopators serve up swingin', stompin' tunes just like they did in the 1920's. You'll feel it from your head all the way down to your feet (and everything in between).
We're thrilled that Karen Tyler has joined Val & Al with the Blues For Kids (BFK) interactive workshops this summer at various locations. Please read the Blues News for upcoming dates.
Blues for Kids has been real busy spreading the Blues in the Santa Barbara Schools. This has been made possible by the generous sponsorship of the Santa Barbara Blues Society. Blues for Kids gets everybody singing and beating out rhythms as they learn about the roots of Blues, Traditional Jazz and Gospels music. Have fun listening and exploring. Check out the new press they've received.
