Our First Tuesday SMTX Film Series will feature When Houston Had the Blues, focusing on the rich, but sadly unheralded, spawning ground of great Black music. No other city can claim giants such as Lightnin' Hopkins, Big Mama Thornton, Clifton Chenier, Clarence “Gatemouth” Brown, Bobby “Blue” Bland, Albert King, Freddie King, and Albert Collins, plus great (pre-Motown) Black-owned labels like Duke and Peacock.  With new interviews featuring Billy Gibbons, CJ Chenier, Marcia Ball, Augie Meyers, Grady Gaines, and many others.

Doors open at 6:15, Food and drink at 6:30, Film at 7 p.m. Seating is limited to 120.

Advanced tickets are highly recommended! Last month SOLD OUT! More info and tickets at www.firsttuesdaysmtx.com This film is brought to you in partnership with the Dunbar Heritage Association and the TXST Center for Texas Music History.
