at the Main Stage at the Newfoundland & Labrador Folk Festival in Bannerman Park in St. John's, NL, Canada.


ROWDY BLUES is a tour through the back roads of the Blues: classic Piedmont blues, gritty Delta blues and swinging Chicago blues. Acoustic guitars, wailing harmonica and stinging slide guitar delivered by top musicians of the St. John's blues scene. The wealth of blues history in this band is impressive and it all comes out on the stage. From the London blues revival, to the Illinois university scene, to a front porch in Alabama, these folks have been there and keep going back. John Clarke (dobro and vocals), Scott Goudie (guitar and vocals), Denis Parker (guitar and vocals) and Peter Narvaez (harmonica, guitar, mandolin and vocals) are ROWDY BLUES.
