Roger Naber has been promoting the Blues for over 25 years, as an independent promoter, as owner of the twice-honored KBA Blues club Grand Emporium in Kansas City, as co-founder of the Kansas City Blues Society and the Kansas City Blues & Heritage Festival, and as the co-founder of the Ultimate Rhythm and Blues cruise. After a brief hiatus, Roger revived the Blues cruise idea four years ago with his Legendary Rhythm and Blues Cruise. Where else can you snorkel with Charlie Musselwhite, shop with Shemekia Copeland, eat gourmet meals with Taj Mahal, and tan with your favorite rhythm section? Imagine fleeing the cold winter for a week of high seas cruising with Blues music playing 24/7. It is named ‘Bluesin” and that’s the festival experience Roger Naber and the entire Legendary staff provides on each cruise. Where everyone has a ‘backstage pass.’
