| Celebrating "The Year of the Blues" Top 100 Performer Countdown - 2003 |
||||
| In celebration of the Year of the Blues, we asked our listeners to vote for their favorite folk musicians to listen to when they have the blues (and when they don't)! The list below, represents the top responses from WUMB listeners, September 21 - November 11, 2003. We've included #101 to #110 in case you wanted to see who "just missed" being included in the Top 100. We began counting down on-air with artist #100 at 7am on Monday, November 17th and continued all week until we reached artist #1 at 6pm on Friday November 21st. This page will be updated all week at 6pm with each day's list. | ||||
