Lunchtime Benefit/Memorial Concert for Tammie Lynn Jones with the Barnes Blues Band
The Barnes Blues Band
Entry Requirements: Under 18s to be accompanied by an appropriate adult
Tammie was a friend to all these guys (Barnes Blues) and many more musicians. Perhaps Tammie’s first musical experience that would direct her tastes was as a four-year old was on her father’s shoulders at the Jimi Hendrix at the Atlanta Pop Festival in 1970. This long-loved interest in music was sparked further when she met her first long term boyfriend, ‘Johnny Colt’, the bass player to the rock band Black Crows. She would recall a story that she informed the band of their new name, the Black Crows, when she took a call one day from their manger, Tammie virtually became a member of the band, living a rock style life, meeting many stars along the way.
