Star City - Guitar City

The Star City district is proud to be a part of the Birmingham International Jazz & Blues Festival and presented three high-quality concerts on the opening day of the festival.

On Friday 16^th July Star City presenting “Guitar Day”, where Professional Music Technology displayed their range of professional valve amplifiers and their wide spectrum of classic and modern guitars in a series of talks and workshops.

The evening brought about a performance from one of Britain’s finest guitarists Martin Taylor, who wowed the audience with his high octane solos.

Other performances included Bob Kerr and his Whoopee Band on Saturday 17^th, which was a highly entertaining performance as he lead the musical hilarity with a variety of instruments.

The US bluesman Chick Willis topped off the weekend on Sunday 18^th, with his mixture of blues and contemporary R&B; a show stopper of a performance for sure.
