Sunday Afternoon Live once again brings a world-class performance to the historic Raymond Theatre on Sunday, November 12. Canadian band Blue Moon Marquee will be sharing their unique interpretation of age-old musical styles in Raymond, WA on Sunday, November 12 at 2:00 PM. To pigeon-hole this band is nearly impossible. Nothing could describe Blue Moon Marquee more colorfully than this excerpt from their official website: “Carving a path through blues, jazz, jump jive, folk, country, swing, and Indigenous soul with an
authentic spirit, their sound does not idle easily in one certain category. It stomps and struts through the wilds, conjuring a blend where Howlin’ Wolf tangles with Django, Earnest Tubb
shoots fireworks with Cab Calloway, and Memphis Minnie throws dice with Screamin’ Jay Hawkins.” (bluemoonmarquee.com/news)
Blue Moon Marquee has had an amazing year: The duo swept the Maple Blues Awards in Toronto, winning the top honors for Canada’s Entertainer of the Year, Acoustic Act of the Year,
Recording & Producer of the Year, and Songwriter of the Year. These awards are the result of fan nominations, a testament to the intense bond between Blue Moon Marquee and their
extremely loyal following. That attachment continues to grow as their recordings climb the charts, and as they bring their unforgettable brand of genre-bending to audiences in the USA,
Canada, and abroad. But these successes follow years of long-distance driving between gigs across Canada, playing
for small crowds, far from the big arenas and bright lights. Blue Moon Marquee is the real deal: They have believed in the absolute importance of bringing their music and message to audiences anywhere, no matter the size of the venue. This is authentic musicianship; it’s an investment in the mission of sharing the arts with all of us, everywhere.
