A word from our Festival Director, Peter Noble OAM
We are thrilled to announce that PJ Morton and Allman Betts Family Revival featuring Ally Venable and Larry McCray will play Bluesfest 2024.
The Allman Brothers were pivotal in creating the Southern Rock genre, and we can’t wait to hear this music played by their talented sons.
PJ Morton is an artist who will shine at Bluesfest. He is one of the new generation of New Orleans artists taking on the world, and we can’t get enough of him.
His 20 GRAMMY nominations and his four wins every year for the past four years mark the emergence of a major artist of the future.
