While Rich often plays intimate duo acoustic sets, when he brings the full Rich Badowski Band, expect the mountain lawn to turn into a high-energy blues joint. A true staple of the Connecticut blues scene who represented CT at the International Blues Challenge in Memphis, Rich brings wailing harmonica riffs and raspy, authentic vocals backed by a powerhouse rhythm section. Expect tight arrangements of ’40s, ’50s, and ’60s classics alongside original tunes that will get everyone on their feet.
