The blues is the universal music for young, old, and everyone in between.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Machura is impressed with the local talent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThere are so many great players in our town: professional blues players like Les Copeland (David Honey-Boy Edwards) and Russel Jackson (BB King), and local favourites like Blind-Dog Guido, and Tim Reardon,\u201d he said. \u201cThey have been joining the jam regularly since it started along with many other talented musicians from Vernon and beyond. The support has been amazing.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The next Okanagan Blues Jam is set for Aug. 17 (Wednesday) starting at 6:30 in Don Cherry\u2019s Sports Grill.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For more information contact Machura <a href=\"https:\/\/marvmachura.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">online<\/a> (marvmachura.com) or at 250-307-1505.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-wp-embed is-provider-vernon-morning-star wp-block-embed-vernon-morning-star\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\nhttps:\/\/www.vernonmorningstar.com\/entertainment\/vernon-blues-jams-sweet-on-cherrys\/\n<\/div><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This Wednesday!
