The Toronto Blues Society’s annual Women’s Blues Revue has wowed Canadian audiences with performances from some of the most accomplished women in Canadian blues. Since its inception in 1987, it has grown from a local event to a national showcase of many of Canada’s greatest blues musicians. Held annually at Toronto’s historic Massey Hall, the Women’s Blues Revue is a not-to-be-missed show. The event has helped launch the careers of Serena Ryder, Amanda Marshall, Donna Grantis, Alana Bridgewater, Ndidi Onukwulu, Layla Zoe, Roxanne Potvin and many more. On today's show, we sample some of the highlights of past shows from 1999 to 2008.
