Ty’s Blues & Food, located at 6445 Soda Bay Road in Kelseyville, is owned by none other than bassist/guitarist Robert Watson, who was the music director at the Konocti Blues Cafe when it was a showcase for blues/gospel diva Bettie Mae Fikes.
The entertainment starts Friday night with Bettie Mae Fikes & The BMF Band.
Watson, who held the music director post in the Soul Generals, James Brown's touring band before he passed, always presented a rotating cast of world class blues, jazz fusion and funk players at the KBC.
Indeed, Watson promises to deliver from an even richer roster of players including Fikes, Rodney Franklin, Elvin Bishop, Billy Johnson, Robert Reason, Lynn Bryant, Zakiya Hooker, Sugar Pie DeSanto, Chris Duarte, Alvon Johnson, Rusty Allen, Robert Gaviola, Ron Carson, Levi Lloyd and Twice As Good.
Executive Chef Seanny B, imported from the Bay Area, is on tap to serve a sumptuous array of entrees from the newly remodeled kitchen. Soul Food Chef Papa Soul will also be on hand to augment the menu with his soul food expertise.
Vegetarian and vegan master Fred Parker will present deliciously healthful entrees as well.
Dessert Specialist Carlotta Brandon’s sweet tooth wares will top it all off.
A full bar will be chaperoned by mixolist LaVonne Hipkiss, who will be working a full bar to satisfy thirst requirements.
Ty’s Blues & Foods will be open seven days a week from 6 a.m. until 2 a.m. for breakfast, lunch and dinner.
Dining reservations can be made by calling 707-278-7286.
