Mexican Rock & Blues Festival
Promoter Bob Rempel Goes To The Dogs!
What A Great Cause – What A Cool Line Up!
Houston TX (February 9 2021) – Today, Tequila Rock & Blues promoter Bob Rempel shared, “Because of the generosity of so many loving souls of animals and music we are able to announce that our virtual international event will occur on March 17th and run through the 22nd. Because of the pandemic, we decided to create a virtual show lineup and allow performers to be with us by way of unique performance videos they would submit to our Fest. It’s really taken off. A great way for performers to start working with us. And a way for performers like rising blues-rock star Clay Melton of Houston to say as he has done, “I really want to support your main Street Animal Rescue Cause”. He loves animals and wants to help any way he can even from afar. Just one example. I could name many others who feel the same way.”  The Tequila Rock N Blues live in person festivals are a staple across Mexico and now with the virtual component in place both entertainment and animal rescue fund raising can continue. Mark the stream date in your calendar – this one is going to rock!  FYI – every donor will receive personal access to the Event Stream which includes both Live and Virtually Live performances.  Blues Rock Recording Artist Clay Melton and his buddy Fender
“When we learned of Bob’s efforts I knew right away that I wanted to contribute to their success.  I hope that blues-rock fans around the world enjoy my latest release and click on their tip jar.  How cool to think that a festival organization saw a problem and moved to correct it, that rocks big time!”
Clay  –  www.claymelton.com

December 18, 2019 Spanish News Release

Did we say that we hope have the largest crowd ever at a live music event in Ixtapa on January 10, 2019.  With many, many dressed in Blues Brother Costume. When people who know their two hour show say to us “This will be the best night of entertainment to come to Ixtapa this season and many more…It’s a can’t miss night”, we can’t help but agree with them.

¿Dijimos que esperamos tener la mayor cantidad de público en un evento de música en vivo en Ixtapa el 10 de enero de 2019.? Cuando las personas que conocen su programa de dos horas nos dicen: “Esta será la mejor noche de entretenimiento para venir a Ixtapa esta temporada y muchas más … Es una noche que no puede perderse”, no podemos dejar de estar de acuerdo con ellos.

Charlie Jacobson- https://www.facebook.com/charliejacobsonmusic/
is a perfect headliner for Tequila Blues Explosion Fest at the beach. Now joining Jenie Thai and Andrew Scott, The Dahl Brothers with their Blues Brothers show and multi-instrument talents, and all our other amazing performers from Mexico and Canada, we’ve got enough great music to keep Festival attendees still asking for more when the final notes are played on Sunday, January 13 on the Blues Kruise 4 Kids.
His music will take us in many directions. Want your taste of Elvis style blues: Check this one out for example: Charlie on Youtube

An accomplished blues and blues-rock musician already, still in his 20’s, a native Albertan, from Red Deer, he has performed at numerous festivals across Canada and won the hearts of fans. Three albums to his credit to date and working on another. All on Spotify.

Ready to be a Festival headliner, and we at Tequila Blues Explosion Fest are delighted to put him in that position. He was selected by Via Rail Corporation to be its Artist On Board for their transcontinental train, after a thorough selection process by Via Rail. Soon with international festival status, we know you’ll love Charlie after you see him in Ixtapa, Mexico. “Discover Charlie Jacobson” say many reviewers. http://www.charliejacobson.com“
