1994

Bluesfest Byron Bay's 5th anniversary in 1994 was truly a momentous occasion. Leading the international charge were luminaries like Taj Mahal, whose deep connection to the blues resonated with raw emotion, and Elvin Bishop, whose soulful guitar playing transported listeners to another dimension. The Holmes Brothers combined gospel and blues in a harmonious blend that stirred hearts and uplifted spirits, while The Paladins and The Red Devils injected a vibrant dose of high-energy rockabilly into the mix.
