The Bay City Blues is our weekly showcase of world class Blues music and superb instrumental talent. This event is a celebration of the Blues in all its forms and an adventure into the depth of a national genre. Hosted by the nationally recognized Terry Hanck & his All-Star cast of Musicians, every week they invite a new special guest to accompany them on stage and present new, upcoming, & old talent from the blues world! Bay City Blues is our tribute and exploration into the Blues genre, it is a special event in which we all get to help, share, & “Preserve the Blues."
Exciting, tenor sax-driven blues and soul, Terry Hanck was the proud recipient of the 2016 BMA Award for "Best Horn"!!!. This Chicago native, now based in South Florida, is steeped in those genre’s traditions as a musician, singer and songwriter Hanck’s choice of material and his presentation are impeccable.
Terry Hanck proves that sax and soul are still the rage. He swept both the Blues Music Awards and the Living Blues Award for "Best Horn" in 2012, and was nominated in the 2012 "Best Song" category as well. He made the 2014 Blues Music Award nominations again and also won the ISC Award (International Songwriting Competition) in the BLUES Category for his powerful soul ballad "I Keep On Holding On."
As saxophonist, singer, bandleader and songwriter, the tall, tan Chicago-born South Florida-based Hanck knows it is good to live in a world of classic New Orleans R&B, steamy strolls, gorgeous soul ballads and West Coast jump blues. His level of expertise in these idioms make for an unbeatable workout on his 2014 CD on Delta Groove Music, GOTTA BRING IT ON HOME TO YOU, the follow-up to his award –winning 2011 album, LOOK OUT!
Joined by his solid sender bandmates—Johnny Soubrand (the sizzling master guitarist celebrating his 10 year anniversary with Terry), and the tight rhythm section of long-time drummer Butch Cousins and bassist Tim Wagar--Terry has never lost his unbridled enthusiasm and fearless youth---in his playing, singing, songwriting or his warm personality. He has travelled from his hometown of Chicago to Southern California to the Bay Area and finally to the southeast coast of Florida; from the 1960s Berkeley-based Grayson Street Houserockers to ten years with the great Elvin Bishop. He has led his own band for over 25 years, creating classic songs that ache with yearning, explode with joy and keep the young and the young at heart on dance floors across America and around the world.
