"The Blues," executive produced by filmmaker Martin Scorsese and premiering Sept. 28 on PBS, anchors a multi-media project
to help raise awareness of the blues and its contribution to American culture and music worldwide. “The Blues” is a seven-part
television series of personal and impressionistic films viewed through the lens of seven world-famous directors who share
a passion for the music.
WBGU-PBS is planning a Diggin’ the Blues down on the Farm kick-off and bluesfest at Hines Farm in Swanton, Ohio, in conjunction
with the series.
