Conceived at San Jose State in 1981 and still going strong, the Fountain Blues and Brews Festival aims to preserve and proliferate the gospel of America’s original artform, all while throwing a kickass party downtown. From its humble beginnings on campus to its present residence at Plaza de Cesar Chavez, the festival has hosted such legends of the genre as John Lee Hooker, Etta James, Bo Diddley and Buddy Guy. This year’s edition is headlined by harmonica god Charlie Musselwhite, and with plenty of local beer on tap, it’s sure to distract you from whatever’s giving you the blues this week.
