Note: I was originally planning on competing for the South Florida Blues Society (SFBS) with Ross 'n' Rose again like in 2019 but Heidi "Heidi Ho" Rosenbaum is coming off knee surgery and won't be healed up in time. So I was going to compete as a solo for SFBS but the competition date is September 15 and I'll be touring in NY and NJ at that time. That's how I wound up competing for the SWFBS crown. Thank you to Blues Bobbyand Mel Suran.
MORE INFO TO COME.
