In the KQEN Cultural Spotlight:

Music on the Half Shell features a night of British blues on Tuesday night.

Matt Schofield is regarded as one of the most distinctive and innovative blues guitarists from his native Britian. His prowess has taken his band to twelve counties where he has played with artists like Buddy Guy and Robben Ford. Scholfield is coming to the Half Shell following a week of shows in Italy.

The concert will begin at 7:00 p.m. at the Nichols Band Shell in Roseburg’s Stewart Park. Food trucks and vendors will offer a wide variety of dinner items including burgers, hot dogs, tacos, Chinese food and much more. Attendees can also bring their own dinner along with wine or beer.

In its 33rd year, Half Shell concerts are presented free to the public, thanks for a long list of sponsors from around the community. Concerts continue weekly through August 12th.
