(The Blues) The National Blues Museum will open in St Louis, Missouri, on April 2 next year, bosses have confirmed. It follows years of campaigning to raise funds and awareness, with help from Buddy Guy, Robert Cray, Derek Trucks and many others.

The 23,000 square foot establishment aims to "celebrate the entire story of the blues" with artefact exhibitions, interactive displays, a theatre, event space and classrooms.

Construction began in March this year at 615 Washington Avenue, a central location in St Louis' downtown tourist district. Read more and watch a video clip with Buddy Guy here.
