David Beardsley has created this website to actively support local artists and organize charitable fund-raisers. The site is not solely about the local St. Louis Blues scene, it’s national in scope as the launch of the Interactive Gig Calendar in 2007 permits bands everywhere to post their gigs and create Google maps to the gigs while being free to all bands and fans. STLBlues.net also books and manages some of the best Blues talent St. Louis offers. The site also boasts a featured CD of the week, news items for the Blues fan, interviews with performers, CD and festival reviews, links to Blues societies and record labels, and an archive of materials back to 2003. With over six million hits per year, there is an enormous amount of Blues information for all fans.
