Big Walter Smith and the Groove Merchants
Brother To The Blues
Big Walter Smith has personified the blues in Minneapolis and St. Paul for over 40 years. His 300-pound presence and velveteen voice have graced almost every blues and R&B stage in the Twin Cities at one time or another, and he has been a mainstay of the popular Bayfront Blues Festival in Duluth since its inaugural year in 1989. He has won 18 music awards in Minnesota. He is so popular in Duluth that the mayor proclaimed August 8, 1997, to be "Big Walter Smith Day" in the city." This is a general admission show.
