Event Description
Toronto Blues Society Presents: Bobby Dean Blackburn


R&B artist Bobby Dean Blackburn gained legendary status as the first black entertainer on Yonge Street in Toronto. He helped to provide opportunities for musicians who followed him. Known as “Canada’s Fats Domino,” Bobby is a world-class soulful blues man and true Rock and Roller, with over 40 years of experience entertaining audiences around North America.

 

In his career, Blackburn has shared his stage with many of the legends of the past including Bo Diddley, Buddy Miles, Rick James and Liberty Silver.

 

He also inspired four musician sons: tenor saxophonist Robert, keyboardist Duane, drummer Cory, and guitarist Brooke, who perform under the group name Blackburn.

 

Arrive by 7:30PM.  Dinner seating begins at 6:30PM.
