Based out of Hamilton, OH, CFG & The Family is a force to be reckoned with. ​The band’s performance has been described as the following: “It’s like standing knee-deep in a Louisiana swamp in mid-August while drinking a top-shelf bourbon, and sharing a slice of pecan pie with Al Green. Hot, sweaty, warming your insides, satisfying that sweet with a little gospel.” With influences deeply rooted in the blues, soul, funk, rock, and jazz genres, CFG & the Family aims to captivate with soul-shouting vocals, bluesy harmonica, slide guitar, and a solid and seasoned rhythm section. With a range of talent spanning several decades, these musicians are focused on delivering modern blues and soul music with a nod to the past.
Since their last Fitton Center album release in May of 2023, CFG & the Family have gotten more than just recordings right. They’ve also piled up prestigious accolades, including a spot in the finals of the2024 International Blues Challenge in Memphis and both CityBeat Cincinnati and Best of Butler County 2025 Best Local Band honors.

Rush Cleveland–aka “Barry Schneiderman”–was born and raised in Cedar Falls, Iowa. His musical career began after he completed his service in the Marine Corps in 1968. His attention turned to the blues in the early 70s after being influenced by the recordings of B.B. King. A few years later his band, which included Molly Nova, was hired by Bob Dorr. Together these musicians went on to form The Little Red Rooster Band.
In the 80s Rush toured Oklahoma with Blues on the Move including band leader DC Minner. With Vern and the Roadhogs and Denny Garcia, he toured Wisconsin and other states. In 1996, Rush traveled to the Smithsonian Institute with Louis McTizic. They were representatives in the Iowa Sesquicentennial delegation at the two-week Smithsonian Folklife Festival. He also continued with Louis’s band until his death. During this time, he also played with RNB Supply Band, and then formed No Control Blues Band.
In 2013 drummer Will Quegg and bassist Gordon Sawkey joined Rush to form the current version of the Rush Cleveland Trio. The group has spent the last decade touring Iowa and surrounding states, only taking breaks for Rush’s winter trips to play solo gigs in the warm southwest.
Throughout his 50+ year career Rush has produced over 40 recordings. He has opened for the likes of The Nighthawks, Commander Cody, Gatemouth Brown, Bryan Lee and Luther Allison. He has had the privilege of playing alongside Iowa Blues Hall of Famers Bob Dorr, Jeff Peterson, Joe & Vicki Price, Tom Giblin, Louis McTizic, Bunky Marlow and tonight’s fellow inductee Molly Nova.

 "Big Shanty - well, it has indeed worked out just fine for the big man since he stormed into the blues world with 2007’s World of Trouble and has continued marching on like Sherman to the sea, adopting a strictly scorched earth policy as he goes. A triple-threat writer/singer/slide guitarist, Shanty attacks most of his songs with impunity and a foul disposition, because this is serious business indeed"

In 1992, the Central Iowa Blues Society (CIBS) was founded by Des Moines native, Mr. Tom Gary, also affectionately know as “The Blues Professor.” Tom also founded the Iowa Blues Hall of Fame in 1999, which became a program of CIBS. Tom, who passed in May of 2019, left a wonderful legacy to Blues music by tracing its rich, historical roots through those who brought this genre to central Iowa.
His academic credentials consisted of teaching degrees related to art and history; both of which he actively taught at Buena Vista University, Grandview University, and Des Moines Catholic Schools.
Tom wrote his Master Thesis at Iowa State University entitled The Rise and Fall of Center Street 1945-1972, which contains the profound history and cultural contributions of local Afro American residents who were the unquestionable progenitors, introducing both Blues music and its “kissing cousin” Jazz to central Iowa. Center Street was ground zero for Delta Music, and in some respects, Des Moines’ own “Beale Street.”
Tom’s credentials, as a musician, consisted of locally performing as a trained keyboardist who founded the decades old Thursday Night Blues Jam located at 1501 Grand Ave. This venue continued through three different owners and three different names: The Grand Avenue Lounge, The Grand, and lastly, Blues on Grand. He also hosted the open jam at the Hull Avenue Tavern, Des Moines’ oldest bar.
He was an active musician in The Tom Gary Blues Band, Bad Boys of the Blues, and The Backstage Boogie Band. Tom also performed with countless local musicians, many who are inductees into the Iowa Blues Hall of Fame.

Benjamin Joe "Bennie" Houston (November 6, 1943 – July 11, 1993), known by his stage name of Boston Blackie, was an American Chicago blues guitarist, singer, and bandleader.Houston was born in Panola, Sumter County, Alabama in the Black Belt. The ninth of eleven children, he grew up in the farmhouse built by his father, a farmer, barber, carpenter, and bricklayer.] He began playing guitar by age six. In 1962 he moved to Chicago where three of his brothers had already relocated and formed a band (Sweetman and the Sugar Boys), which he joined.The band broke up following the death of his brother Nathanial, and Houston – briefly taking the stage name Dog Man – worked various gigs as he honed his craft in the 1960s and 1970s. He backed Johnny B. Moore and Lee "Shot" Williams at the Majestic Lounge, Little Milton at Pepper's Lounge, and played at various times with Magic Sam, Otis Rush, Freddie King, Kansas City Red, Hubert Sumlin, Homesick James, Jimmy Dawkins, Little Walter, and Eddie Shaw. His stage name is based on fictional pulp noir hero Boston Blackie; Houston was also exceptionally dark-skinned, given to playfully challenging the audience to send up a blacker person, a game he never lost.Houston developed an aggressive, raw, and hard-edged style, informed by the work of Magic Sam, Otis Rush, Elmore James, Little Milton, and Bobby Blue Bland. He performed at all the West Side delta blues clubs. At the time of his death his Boston Blackie Blues Band was regularly appearing at Mr. Tee's Lounge, the Delta Fish Market, and the Guess Who Lounge. Houston was shot dead in Chicago by blues singer Tail Dragger Jones. Jones claimed self-defense and that Houston, who claimed that Jones owed him money, had confronted him with a knife. Jones was convicted on a lesser charge of involuntary manslaughter and served seventeen months in prison.

Mississippi grown Patrick Hazell is blues-soaked; fully, from head down to his feet. With more than three dozen albums behind and hundreds of gigs he remains the same, he remains true BLUES artist.
Although Mr. Hazell is equally good on both harp and keyboards, what drives on this album is his piano, incredible, emotional, rooted in mid 20th century juke-joints so deeply one might think recording is made in 1960s Chicago blues club. Patrick Hazell plays as if his fingers are directly connected to his heart. If his broken-beat will not make you wow, and if up-tempo playing for boogie woogie will not make you tap your foot, sorry, you're deaf because Mr. Hazell's piano playing is mesmerizing.And, nothing is saved, all the Blues is played here and now, no economies made.If you are thirsty for low-down piano and harmonica Blues, you should listen to this album.

"The latest from guitarist Paul Mayasich and his band of buddies is an eclectic mix of American music.You get blues of all kinds, country, folk, and lots more – all of it laced with Mayasich’s biting electric guitar and acoustic slide.If big crunchy guitar is your idea of a good time, “High Time” is a fine place to start. It’s a slow, bluesy boogie that features his lowdown slide soloing. “Insane” is a fun up-tempo tune mixing organ and guitar to craft a memorable lick that sticks like a good meal. The last two minutes of the song is basically a free-for-all amongst the entire band. The instrumental “Taxing Johanna” sounds like a Tom Waits backing track.“Skipping To Moon” features several sections. The open has a droning sound featuring Mayasich’s slide. He segues into a folk feel. Finally, it turns into a swinging rocker that sounds like a long-lost Allman Brothers track, before moving back into the folk song.The record is a showcase for a guitarist, singer, and songwriter at the peak of his powers" ~ Vintage Guitar magazine.

Sarah Jane Nelson’s relationship with the blues is rooted in her upbringing in Monroe, Louisiana. “In junior high school I came across a boxed set of Robert Johnson music at the local record store. Eric Clapton, one of my favorites, endorsed the set saying Johnson was ‘the most important blues musician who has ever lived.’ Those recordings were like nothing I had ever heard, and I was drawn to the simple production that let the remarkably honest storytelling shine through. Suddenly I realized where all the popular rock and country music I loved had originated.” Years later, working in New York City as a professional actress, Nelson was cast in “It Ain’t Nothin’ But the Blues,” at the Prince Music Theater in Philadelphia. With a sold out extended run, that show, which chronicled the history of blues music, was Nelson’s first taste of singing the blues professionally. A year later, Nelson performed in an Off-Broadway production of “El Paso Blue,” a play with a blues score written by Michael “Hawkeye” Herman. When Sarah Jane and Hawkeye came together to rehearse the music, it was “love at first jam,” and they have been playing together ever since. “I adore Hawkeye as a person, an artist, and a collaborator. He sees something special in me, and that has been a great source of inspiration on my journey into blues. This music is where I’m from and where I live. I love the sound, the songs, the storytelling, and the unwavering strength that is at the core of all blues music.” “Wild Women Don’t Get the Blues” was inspired by Sunday afternoon blues jams at the home of Hawkeye Herman (www.hawkeyeherman.com). All tracks were recorded LIVE at Freeman Sound in Ashland, Oregon with no-frills production to capture the ambiance of a backporch jam and let the storytelling shine through. It also features harmonica with Big Irv Lubliner and Tom Freeman on percussion.

This groundbreaking project celebrates the centennial birthday of B.B. King, honoring his monumental legacy with a one-of-a-kind Collaboration Album. The album will feature a double album worth of curated tracks of B.B. King's most iconic songs, recorded/tracked by Blues Rock Icon Joe Bonamassa and his all-star band, with production led by 2-time Grammy-nominated producers Joe Bonamassa and Josh Smith. The reimagined tracks will include a stellar lineup of guest musicians from both contemporary and legacy backgrounds that will unite multiple generations and genres to pay tribute to the King of Blues with 32 tracks and including 40 special guests! Working directly with B.B. King’s estate, this project is deeply personal to Joe, reflecting his lifelong admiration for B.B. and the profound impact B.B. had on his career and life. Joe’s connection with B.B. began in 1989 when, as a 12-year-old prodigy, he had the life-changing opportunity to open for Mr. King. Over the years, their friendship grew as they toured together on dozens of occasions, cementing a bond that Joe cherishes to this day.
