The event will start at 8 p.m. Sunday, Sept. 26.
Fikes has a large Lake County following and recently headlined the second annual Blue Wing Labor Day Blues Concert.
Born in Selma, Ala., Bettie Mae Fikes was active in the Civil Rights Movement, beginning her singing career with the SNCC Freedom Singers and performing at the 1964 Democratic Party convention in Atlantic City and at various reunions since.
She has graced the stages of Carnegie Hall, Newport Jazz Festival, the Library of Congress and numerous blues festivals.
Fikes' connections to Lake County are deep, and in August of last year she stepped onto a small local stage with five of her favorite musicians and the house packed with enthusiastic fans. The result was her latest recording called “How Blue Can You Get?”
She will perform under the stars on the top deck of the Clear Lake Queen (weather permitting – bring a sweater). If the weather is cool, then we will be inside.
You don't want to miss this event. It is the last chance to see Ms Fikes in Lake County for awhile.
The WaterColor Club is located on the Clear Lake Queen, docked at Ferndale Resort & Marina, 6190 Soda Bay Road, Kelseyville.
