     Performers who are talented writers, singers, and guitar players have appeared at the festival and enthralled Blues enthusiasts.  Blues stars James Harman, Terry Garland, Billy Boy Arnold, and many like them, have presented standout performances at the Virginia Beach oceanfront.  Instrumental workshops, led by Natchel’ Blues Network personnel and festival performers, are offered free to spectators.
