~New Blues Festival VIII & Shoreline Aquatic Park: Some History~

“This is the eighth New Blues Festival, the sixth in Long Beach, and the first time the New Blues Festival will be held in the prime Entertainment Destination of Shoreline Aquatic Park, which is a Peninsula of Land surrounded on three sides by water,” says Festival Promoter and Curator, Bill Grisolia. “One side of the Peninsula is located in the Pacific Channel, which leads to the Los Angeles River tributary. The other side Is Rainbow Harbor, which includes both working Fishing and Charter Boats as well as all types of pleasure crafts. Across from the tip of the Peninsula is the tip of Shoreline Village, with it’s iconic Lighthouse Restaurant. Shops and restaurants highlight the Shoreline Village experience including the original Yard House Restaurant. Next to the park is the Aquarium of the Pacific, with its recent $53 million Pacific Visions addition. The Aquarium is known throughout Southern California for its Rescue and Rehabilitation efforts and it to work with school children from across the Los Angeles and Orange County areas.

“The Festival will seek to add a kick-off event on Friday, November 12 to be arranged to perhaps with a Host Hotel,” adds Grisolia, who besides fronting the New Blues Festivals All-Stars, is also the longtime vocalist-pianist and front-person for well-known Long Beach mainstay, New Blues Revolution.
