Fundraiser for Memphis IBC
Ross 'n' Rose featuring Robert Ross on guitar, slide guitar, harmonica and lead vocals; and Heidi "Heidi Ho" Rosenbaum on drums and backup vocals recently won the South Florida Blues Challenge in the solo/duo category. Winning this title qualified us to compete in the International Blues Challenge (IBC) on Beale St in Memphis from January 28, 2020 to Feb 1, 2020. The IBC is put on every year by the Blues Foundation. This is quite the honor for us and will be a wonderful experience! We're looking forward to competing with the worlds best Blues musicians on an international stage.
We started a fundraiser to assist with the expenses. We have raised a little over $1000 so far. Fantastic !! Thank you one and all.
It costs about $1500 each for the trip, $3000 and we're grateful for 50% of that. It includes, roundtrip airfare, hotel rooms for 5 nights, and of course food. And don’t forget, we won’t be “working” while we’re there so we won’t be earning a single dollar.
No donation is too small and thank you for your consideration!
Any questions you may have, feel free to email Heidi at Funkyh@PROTECTED or Robert at bluesman@PROTECTED

Robert is a two time New York Music Award winner and a New York Blues Hall of Fame inductee. Robert is known for a wide variety of blues, jazz, soul, country, rock ‘n’ roll, folk, and other roots music. Robert worked and recorded with Big Joe Turner and also worked with Lightnin’ Hopkins, John Lee Hooker, Otis Rush, Big Mama Thornton, Brownie McGhee, Memphis Slim, and other legends. One of Robert’s songs was recorded by Johnny Winter, and two other songs appeared on the soap opera “All My Children”. The Robert Ross Band has released 7 internationally distributed CDs and toured two continents. Robert has been teaching guitar for more then 25 years privately, and 13 years in NYC public schools.
