The Performers for the 2011 Callander Jazz and Blues Festival
The musicians taking part in this year's festival event have been carefully selected so that visitors to the event can enjoy more or less every style of live Jazz and Blues Music.
Some of this year's performers are making their debut, others have been invited back by popular demand, but they all have a single aim and that is to provide you with a feast of live musical entertainment.
From solo artists to 21 piece big bands and everything in between with over three hundred musicians that will ensure a long weekend of great music here in the autumn splendour of the Trossachs.
Here is a list of the bands we have for 2011 and we will update this if required.
