Blind Willie McTell Blues Music Festival Poster 2002

Description: Blind Willie McTell Blues Music Festival Poster 2002 Over the past 25 years, several artists have tried their hand at creating a poster to publicize the annual blues festival in McDuffie County (Georgia). “The posters are designed to emphasize McTell and his history here first, and secondly, the history of music,” said Don Powers, of the Activities Council, the group that puts on the Blind Willie McTell Blues Festival each year. “If you notice, not all the posters are of Blind Willie McTell, but they all try to characterize the way back years, the music that was played in the first half of the 20th century. It’s designed to give a feel of old-timey music.” —blindwillie.com Blind Willie McTell (born William Samuel McTier; May 5, 1898 – August 19, 1959) was a Piedmont blues and ragtime singer and guitarist. He played with a fluid, syncopated fingerstyle guitar technique, common among many exponents of Piedmont blues. Unlike his contemporaries, he came to use twelve-string guitars exclusively. McTell was also an adept slide guitarist, unusual among ragtime bluesmen. His vocal style, a smooth and often laid-back tenor, differed greatly from many of the harsher voices of Delta bluesmen such as Charley Patton. McTell performed in various musical styles, including blues, ragtime, religious music and hokum. Framed, very colorful poster for the 2002 McTell Blues Festival. Good condition-there is a crease (photo 5) and there may be scratches to the wood frame. Measures about: 27.75”L x 16.75”W Ships from a smoke free, pet free home. Thanks for viewing!!
