BreezeFest exemplifies Carlos Capote’s generosity
Anyone who knew or worked with the late Carlos Capote understood that the local singer, harp player, frontman and founder of the Breeze Kings (“Breeze” was also his nickname) would drop everything to assist and lend his name, and talents, to almost any fundraising or benefit project. He was committed to giving back to the community and especially to other fledgling musicians. In 2016, The Atlanta Blues Society awarded Carlos an Honorary Lifetime Membership for his over 20 years of being a vital part of the Atlanta Blues scene.”

2024 March 9th @ Cajun Blues
Bob Margolin and Friends
The show at Cajun Blues was sold out as Blue Velvet Atlanta played the
opening set for “Steady Rollin'” Bob Margolin, then played backup for Bob along with Skyler Saufley, Jackson Allen, and Josh Minucci. Bob played and sang songs and told stories from his adventures as a member of Muddy Waters' band. He also did a couple of songs that were performed at The Last Waltz where Bob was playing with Muddy.
The crowd was thoroughly entertained by Bob's fantastic guitar playing, dynamic singing and entertaining anecdotes.
The success of the event and evening have led to return performances of Bob Margolin on Sept 13th (Acoustic Set) and with Blue Velvet Atlanta on Sept.14th. See You There!
