Black Mountain Blues Society

Our mission is to preserve, celebrate, and grow the blues in Western North Carolina through education, outreach, and meaningful support for the artists who keep this music alive.
From nurturing emerging talent to creating opportunities for performance and connection, we are committed to building a vibrant and lasting blues community. Each year, we bring this mission to life through the Annual Black Mountain Blues Music Event—an experience that unites artists, audiences, and neighbors in the spirit of authentic, live music.
