Hamilton's Ronnie Copple Passes

It is with sadness that we announce the passing of Hamilton musician Ronnie Copple, who died on March 6, 2019.  Ronnie was a veteran artist who worked with the legendary King Biscuit Boy, Jack de Keyzer and many others. He was a familiar face at the Blues With a Feeling fundraisers where he'd play as people were coming in to the venue. Our condolences to his family, friends and fans.

Check out this wonderful article from his former bandmate Doug Carter!

Performer of the Week: Eddie's Club Blues

You'll never experience anything quite like Eddie's Club Blues. This two man band featuring musical vet, Ron Copple (guitar/vocals) and Ian Linton (Bass/Vocals) meld everything from dance beats, jazz sounds and funky stuff into classic blues standards.

The raw vocals hark back to old delta blues players but with a modern twist similar to what RL Burnside tried in the latter part of his career.

You can check them out yourself on Saturday, October 17 at the Winking Judge.
