The Michael Schatte Band won first prize in the 2015 Toronto Blues Society Talent Search held on June 20th in downtown Toronto’s Historic Distillery District. The band (Schatte, Randy Cassidy on bass/backing vocals and Riley O’Connor on drums) competed against five other finalists, all of whom performed admirably, making for a great afternoon of live music. Many thanks to the Toronto Blues Society for orchestrating this tremendous event. Michael will certainly make good use of the prize package, detailed on the TBS website here.
