Blues All Souls’ Day was organized for the first time in November 1983. It was dedicated to the memory of founder of the oldest blues festival in Poland (Autumn with Blues in Białystok), the leader of Kasa Chorych band – Ryszard “Skiba” Skibiński. All great blues musicians said goodbye to him during that farewell event. Since that time ,the event is held periodically and is very popular among the audience. During All Souls’ Days we had the opportunity to host in Białystok the biggest names in the blues world from Poland and abroad.
