Vertigo Blues Band is celebrating its sixth year in BluesEd, a music education and performance program sponsored by the Blues Society of Omaha. A blues-rock crossover band, Vertigo has six accomplished high school aged musicians – two guitars, a bass guitar, drums, and two vocalists. Our musicians are multi-instrumentalists with experience on stage with BluesEd, marching band and show choirs across the Omaha region. Vertigo covers legends like Led Zeppelin, Freddy King, and Aretha Franklin and features music by newer soulful rock and blues artists like Samantha Fish and Kenny Wayne Shepherd. Look for original music later this season along with acoustic versions of band favorites. Last season Vertigo performed over 20 gigs including Playing with Fire at Turner Park, In the Market for Blues, the Five One 8 and the B. Bar.
