- Bill Ortiz Band @ "Biscuits & Blues"
I'm very happy to announce that I'll be playing w/ my band at "Biscuits & Blues" in San Francisco on Thursday, May 13th. Biscuits & Blues has been voted America's #1 blues nightclub by the Blues Foundation/WC Handy Awards, as well as the Bay Area Blues Society. They feature some of the country's best blues, R & B and jazz artists, and serve some wonderful southern style cuisine in an intimate setting with excellent seating all around. The bottom line is that "Biscuits & Blues" is a great place to see live music. It's an all age venue- shows are at 8:00 and 10:00 and tickets are $15. Thanks once again for all your support of live music and local bay area artists- hope to see you all there!
- Santana Playing Dubai
Looking forward to flying to Dubai tomorrow - I'll be playing with the Santana Band (Elton John is also on the bill) as part of the 15th running of the Dubai World Cup. We played there in 2008 and had a wonderful time - I'll post some pictures from the road our trip.
I'm will also be playing at "Biscuits & Blues" (a great club in San Francisco) with my band on Thursday, May 13th. More info to follow-hope to see you there!
