We hope you enjoyed the 2021 summer season. Unfortunately, it was necessary to cancel the August performance due to construction.
The Bugs Beddow Band plays trombone-driven party blues & funk – hot, danceable, rockin’ rhythm & blues that delivers plenty of vocals, horns, and dancing. Things really get cookin’ with an excellent vocal blend atop rockin’ blues rhythms and a sparkling horn section that is punctuated by searing electric guitar work.
