August In Stresa -- Piazza Matteotti

Every seat is taken and crowds also stand along the sides to hear the Eight O'Clock Blues Band, playing their fourth of five concerts scheduled for this summer at Caffe Bolongaro. This group addresses the crowd in Italian, and then sings some of the best Chicago and Louisiana style blues you've heard, all in perfect English. The crowd always seems to love this multicultural evening... evidenced by much toe-tapping and clapping.
