The Golden Gate Blues Society enjoys working in the Bay Area Blues Scene. Here are some of the things we've been doing...

• Excellent musicians competing in our local IBC, with TGGBS Band and Solo/Duo acts being sent to Memphis nearly every year since 2011 to represent the Bay Area in the Blues Foundation's International Blues Challenge. We're very proud of our artists' achievements! Please visit our IBC page for more info on the program and our artists who've competed.
• Best Self-Produced CD Submissions to the Blues Foundation's Award Committee.
• A 'Musicians Health Fund', which in the last few years has donated several thousand dollars to musicians in need. The San Francisco International Boogie Woogie Festival is currently our biggest donor to this fund -- but you can also contribute by clicking the 'Donate' button on this page, or by visiting our Store page.
• Support of major Blues and Roots Festivals in the Bay Area, such as the Fountain Blues Festival, the Hayward Russell City Blues Festival, and others.
• Support for Keeping the Blues Alive Awards, such as the one for Myron Mu (owner of The Saloon, San Francisco).
