17th Annual Blue Wing Blues Festival - Richie Blue Band + Ben Rice and the Portland Hustle

Opening for Rice will be local favorite, the Richie Blue Band. A Blue Wing favorite, Ben Rice has been leaving huge impressions on audiences around the Northwest and winning awards for his vocals and guitar playing for the last ten years. Since his last Blues Festival appearance in 2022, Ben has formed Ben Rice and the PDX Hustle by adding horns, vocal harmonies, piano and organ for a larger, more energetic sound. The higher-intensity presentation has been transformative and brings Ben’s music to a whole new level.
