UPDATE: November 1, 2022.

The Board of Directors of the Edmonton Blues Society has elected to change the date and time of year for the Memphis Bound Blues Challenge.  In order to compete with most other Blues Societies in Canada and the USA, we are moving the EBS Memphis Bound Blues Challenge from the fall to the late Spring. As of today, November 1, 2022, the trials and finals will be held April 17-29, 2023. These dates are tentative subject to the number of bands participating”. The winning band category, single/duo category, and the "Best Self-Produced CD" category, and EBS volunteers will have more time & opportunity to prepare for a great MBBC next year.  The winning acts will have more practice time to hone their skills, gain more stage experience, and will have more fundraising opportunities to cover the rising costs for their trip to the International Blues Challenge in Memphis, TN.  Good Luck everyone!
