The Biscuit is Back!

King Biscuit Blues Festival
Helena, AR
Oct. 6-8, 2011

As announced at the close of 2010's Blues Festival, the Biscuit was back in 2011. After several years of not being able to use the King Biscuit name, the Arkansas Blues & Heritage Festival was given the right to once again call it King Biscuit. And the King was everywhere. With 3 top headliners-Buddy Guy, Delbert McClinton and Keb' Mo', plus a ton of talented musicians ranging from Sharrie Williams (pictured above) Anson Funderburgh, Hamilton Loomis, Cedric Burnside, Michael Burks, Reba Russell, Steve Cropper, Lonnie Shields, Don McMinn and many others, the Biscuit was non-stop music. The weather cooperated, the fans were out in force and it could not have been a better time. Next year's Biscuit is October 4-6, 2012 ♫
