This year's lineup includes local musician Willie J. Laws featuring Roberto Morbioli, Misty Blues, Downtown Dave and the Deep Pockets and the 2022 Granite State Blues Challenge winners, Erin Harpe CBD and Frankie Boy and the Blues Express. 

The event will also include raffles, and Granite State Blues Society memberships will be available for an annual fee of $25. There will also be children's activities and vendors.
