BANDANA BLUES invites you on a musical journey every week for about an hour and a half of 21st Century Blues with a nod to The Masters.
Beardo (from Philly, USA) started with the Bandana Blues shows doing them live on the internet in the late 1990's and was soon joined by his long-time friend Spinner (from The Hague, NL). Soon after the turn of the century Bandana Blues became a weekly podcast. Beardo & Spinner have produced the shows together for almost 15 years. After the sad and suddden demise of Beardo in 2017, Spinner continued the labor of love on his own.

Customer Reviews
Great new and old music. A must for Blues lovers.
A great way to hear all the new releases.
Long Live the Blues
The blues is dead, you say? Not!! This podcast is the proof. Beardo is gone to that juke joint in the sky (Sorely missed, I must say. What a shock!) but Spinner carries on in fine style. Mourn Beardo. Long live his name! Long live Spinner. He's the man, now and he knows his stuff. Long live the blues! That's all there is to say.
Stick to the music
Wish you could stick to the music and the artists and not wallow in the mud of political ignorance. Too many other options available where hosts ensure the music and artists are a priority so listeners may find new musicians and enjoy potentially unknown tunes from known artists.
