   About Crossroads Blues Club
The Crossroads Blues Club, was started by Ken Stratford and 'Chickenbone' John Wormald, members of the Blues group Chickenbone Blues. The current home of the club and for the foreseeable future is the Tower of Song Cafe Bar in Cotteridge Birmingham. Thursday nights are club nights, and the usual format is an open mic session for the first part of the evening. People who wish to play should turn up early to avoid disappointment. The second part of the evening is given over to sets by local Blues groups or musicians and we pass the hat to pay them. If you or your band want to be considered for a gig, contact Ken Stratford using the email contact on the club website.
