If ever there was an election for "Queen of Pennsylvania Blues", anyone
who has seen or heard her voice would vote for Bev Conklin, the powerful
vocalist for BC and The Blues Crew. This multi-award-winning
band delivers outstanding live performances and great recordings.
Using a great feel for R&B and funk, and mixing in a generous dose
of the Blues, BC and the boys blend a sound that showcases vocals, saxophone,
guitars and that great Hammond B3 sound, anchored by one of the BEST
rhythm sections in the Northeast.

BC & THE BLUES CREW You can't really call yourself a Lehigh Valley blues fan if you haven't yet seen BC & The Blues Crew perform live. Since 1992, BC (aka Bev Conklin) has been belting out old blues classics along with new, original tunes crafted with the five other members of her band; in the process she's inspired other area players such as Mary Hawkins and Sarah Ayers (both of whom can also sing like it's nobody's business).
