Blues Caravan is unstoppable. Fifteen years after Europe s most respected label put on its first showcase tour, the founding concept is instantly familiar to blues fans: every night, on club stages across the US and Europe, three rising talents will burn down the house and kick the blues into the modern age. But there s a twist. With thelineup chosen each year from the cream of the Ruf roster, every Caravan has a fresh vibe, a fizzing chemistry and plenty of flying sparks. And with three wildly different artists running the gamut of styles in 2020, all bets could have been off. But in 2020 a virus destroyed a year full of shows all over the world. Luckily before the lockdown we recorded the show on the 18th February 2020 at the Hirsch in Nuernberg (Germany) So here we go! Your stars of 2020 live on CD and DVD. Get on your couch and enjoy a great live music concert from home with Jeremiah Johnson, Whitney Shay

Texas Honey. Venable’s upward trajectory continued with house-rocking sets on the Blues Caravan tour.
Not one to let a global pandemic derail her momentum, Venable worked on
