Jay Walter & The Rectifiers
Heading To Memphis

Jay Walter and the Rectifiers will represent the Minnesota Blues Society at IBC 2023 in Memphis from Jan. 24 to Jan. 28, 2023. Original songs and the great guitar playing of John Franken made this band the best. The other band competing in this year's challenge was The Famous Jimmy Blues Band. They also gave an outstanding performance.

There will be a fundraiser for the musicians travel fund on Sunday November 6. Challenge winners Mia Dorr/Scott Graves, Jay Walter and the Rectifiers, along with the Mark Cameron Band and Jimmi and the Band of Souls will play for us. Bake sale, 50/50 raffle, and door prizes, for a great afternoon. — Steve Leutgeb
