The Blues Hotel: Welcome Back to The Blues Hotel.

 The Blues Hotel – Authentic Blues. Real Stories.

Hosted by Kelvin Huggins

After an unexpected break, The Blues Hotel swings open its doors once again, inviting blues lovers back inside for two soul-drenched hours of real, authentic blues. Hosted by Kelvin Huggins, this show is a heartfelt journey through the music that shaped generations—from legendary pioneers to modern-day torchbearers.

Each episode blends classic cuts with new discoveries, celebrating the raw emotion, resilience, and deep storytelling that define the blues. Whether it’s heartbreak, hard times, or hard-earned joy, The Blues Hotel captures the full spectrum of human experience with a soundtrack to match.

Listeners can settle in with segments like Backstory Blues, Then and Now, and Live at the MBAS, showcasing everything from Elmore James and Buddy Guy to Blackstone Cherry and the Justin Yap Trio. Along the way, discover the global reach of the blues—from Mississippi to Melbourne—and hear the voices keeping it alive today.

Part of the Blues Hotel Collective, the show is expanding with a brand-new website, exclusive merch, and a 24/7 streaming blues service. Join us weekly and keep the spirit alive—because the heart of the blues, it never stops beating.

The Blues Hotel Collective is an independent blues media platform dedicated to preserving, promoting, and celebrating blues culture. While we are based in Perth, Western Australia, our "hotel" is a metaphorical space—a welcoming hub where artists, fans, and historians can "check in" to connect, share stories, and immerse themselves in the rich tapestry of the blues. Our mission is simple: to give the blues a bigger voice – through authentic storytelling, in-depth interviews, and passionate music discovery.
