Cathalena E. Burch The Tucson Musicians Museum started getting calls from local musicians in the days after its founder and beloved Tucson bluesman George Howard died in April.

I have been overwhelmed with the love and just the respect they had for George." Sunday's event, which was coordinated by Travis, TMM and the Southern Arizona Blues Heritage Foundation, will include performances by TuneSmith; Howard's old band Mojo Zydeco Cannibals; Grammy-nominated world musicians R. Carlos Nakai and AmoChip Dabney; Tucson's legendary Bad News Blues and Neon Profit bands; and the blues band Black Cat Bones.
