History

The Blues Project's debut performance was at the Ultimate Sports Bar in Lakewood, Ohio, on May 13, 1989.[2]

The band has performed in Greater Cleveland as an opener for blues and rock artists.[3]

In 2018, Dussault co-wrote, recorded, and released a CD single titled "A Song for Our Children" following the Parkland high school shooting. Proceeds from the single were donated to Moms Demand Action for Gun Sense in America,[4] which was formed into Everytown for Gun Safety.[5]

Performances

Colin Dussault performed with the band Night Bridge at a July 1998 political fundraiser for U.S. Senate candidate Mary O. Boyle,[citation needed] which included an appearance by then-President Bill Clinton and First Lady Hillary Clinton.[6] Dussault's band also performed at the 2004 Election Eve Rally for presidential candidate John Kerry, held at Mall C in Downtown Cleveland on November 1, 2004, alongside Roosevelt and Bruce Springsteen.[citation needed]

Dussault has released eleven self-produced and self-marketed Compact Disc recordings on his Erica Records/Buddha Belly Productions label.[citation needed] The band's music has been featured on Cleveland's WNCX 98.5 Classic Rock.[citation needed] "Good Booty and BBQ", co-written by Greg Bandy and Colin Dussault, has been covered by Chicago's Howard and the White Boys, who included the song on their 2007 CD "Made in Chicago", released and distributed by Evidence Music.[7]
