Even though Polish performers didn’t get through the world’s biggest blues competition, they are still thrilled.

Unfortunately, Polish representatives didn’t get to the semifinals of the biggest and most prestigious blues world competition- the International Blues Challenge.

Poland, in Memphis, was represented by Dr Blues, Niki Buzz and Re Vision, Two Timer and Romek Puchowski. None of the Vistula representatives didn’t get to semifinals.

All Polish performers, despite a minor setback, were delighted with the atmosphere of the festival in Memphis and their presence during such important blues event. – Now you can simply enjoy the places where a few decades ago music was created, the music that we love so much … Soak up the atmosphere and ambience of Beale Street in Memphis … – wrote Dr. Blues (Krzysztof Rybarczyk) to www.bluesonline.pl.
