The Delta Generators are blues winners

The Delta Generators, Central Massachusetts blues band led by singer Craig Rawding, won the regional competition of the International Blues Challenge. That means they nabbed a spot in the national music-off of the Challenge, which happens in Memphis the first week of February.

For us locals, Jan. 2 at Gilrein's will be the last chance to catch the quartet before it heads west to compete for notoriety, bucks and contracts.

Also, The Delta Generators record, Devil in the Rhythm, was nominated for Best Blues Album in the Independent Music Awards, with judges that include Roger Daltrey, Peter Gabriel and Buddy Guy. There is a public voting portion for that: www.independentmusicawards.com.
