Smoky skies brought much cooler temperatures to Libby last weekend for the 17th annual Riverfront Blues Festival at Riverfront Park. 

Fans of all ages got to see Missoula's Moneypenny, Stoney Curtis, Memphis' Tony Holiday and New York's Chris O'Leary.

Saturday's shows included Kelly’s Lot, Spokane-based Atomic Jive and Alison Joy Williams. Libby's own Jay Snow and the Tone Keepers were followed by Two Slim and the Taildraggers and the All-Star Jam ended the raucous weekend as the sun went down.
