Due to the coronavirus outbreak, bars and restaurants have been closed in Ohio, Kentucky, and Indiana. This will obviously have a huge impact on music events, as in, we would expect them to be cancelled or postponed. We’ll try and keep the calendar updated as best as we can.
We suggest following official guidelines to avoid mass gatherings for everyone’s safety during this unprecedented and trying time. Thank you and hang in there – we will get through this!
In the meantime, musicians – we suggest shifting online if possible. If you are having any online events, live streams, watch parties etc., let us know and we’ll list them on our calendar, as if they were “normal” live music events.
We will be sending out a blog broadcast to our website, email list, and Facebook page once a week on Tuesdays. So that means if you want some extra promo from us, you’ll need to plan out your live streams in advance so we have time to promote it (just like with “normal” gigs).
If you’re selling CDs, giving music lessons, or whatever, let us know and we’ll also list it on the Upcoming Shows calendar page.
Send your info to update@cincyblues.org or message us on our Facebook page https://www.facebook.com/cincyblues/. You can also send past live streams to our Facebook – we’ll share it so you can get more re-plays.
We still need your music to help get us through tough times, so let us know what you’re up to!
