Blues for Ukraine is more than a concert. It’s part eyewitness account, part humanitarian reckoning, and part night of music in service of something far bigger than entertainment.
The evening features a slideshow presentation and retrospective by Chloë Black, reflecting on four years of humanitarian and animal rescue work in war-torn Ukraine. It’s the kind of story that cuts through the noise — lived experience from the ground, told by someone who has seen the devastation up close and kept showing up anyway.
Backing that up is a blues lineup with serious weight behind it: Tony D of MonkeyJunk, Al Lerman of Fathead and the Maple Blues Revue, Omar Tunnoch of Fathead, and Gary Peeples and Al Black of Jackson Delta. In other words, this isn’t some casual add-on. It’s a room full of seasoned players bringing soul, grit, and purpose to the cause.
So yes, expect great music. But expect something heavier, too — a night built on witness, compassion, and the stubborn belief that art can still gather people for the right reasons.
