Leif Totusek & Candela Blues
Waterfront Blues Festival
Portland, OR.
July 5, 2014
Another year of WBF recordings. Recorded from KBOO FM in Portland, OR. A great lineup again this year. I was looking forward to Greg Allman's set, but he had to pull out due to sickness. Oh well, I wouldn't have been able to share him here anyway. Seems to be much more DJ talking this year, interrupting some music. I just left it in rather than trying to edit each show. Feel free to make any changes you wish for personal use.
I may need help with some of the set list's as I don't know all the bands.
Enjoy, twofthrs

Seattle-based, world-renowned composer/guitarist Leif Totusek, known for his stunning mastery of wide-ranging world-music genres�particularly Pan-African (Congo/Haiti/Cuba/Mali/NewOrleans) styles with his group, Freestyle Candela�explores with his ensemble, �Candela Blues,� the African roots of blues guitar. He will be accompanied by Steve Kindler on 9-string violin (from The Mahavishnu Orchestra), Ibrahima Camara on percussion (Stevie Wonder group, National Ballet of Senegal), Phil Sparks on upright bass, Yvey Valcin vocals (Haiti), and Ricardo Guity on percussion (from Garifuna region of Honduras).
Those of you who missed Totusek�s workshop on the FedEx Crossroads stage last year on Sensational Sunday�a sublime workshop/demonstration/journey most of those in attendance declared one of the hidden highlights of last year�s festival�get another chance. Following their main stage appearance Saturday, Totusek and percussionist Camara take the Crossroads stage on another Pan-African blues voyage.
