The inventor of gastronomical boogie woogie.
Like a cross between Justin Wilson
and Robert Johnson,
He sings the blues
He cooks the gumbo
He plays the guitar
He writes the tunes
He feeds the masses
He makes his very own hot sauce
That’s why they call him …
THE SAUCE BOSS

We invite you to visit the Village of Fredonia during the Red, White and Blues Festival to get a taste of one of the best small towns in Western New York!
