For the Thursday-to-Sunday stretch of October 8–11, the clearest genre thread sits in one small room: Mojo Blues Bar runs three consecutive blues-focused nights, each approaching the form from a different point of entry. Thursday begins with a house-band Blues Jam, Friday brings Dawnette Fessey with Big Creek Slim Band, and Saturday closes the sequence with Sweet Marta & Johnny Big Stone. It is a useful route through a local blues ecology: players gathering around a shared songbook, a Danish artist working inside deep-rooted country-blues language, and visiting musicians carrying acoustic styles across European club circuits.[1][2][3]

Thursday opens the floor

The Blues Jam starts at 21:30 on Thursday, October 8. Mojo Blues Bar describes it simply as an open mic with a house band, which is precisely the point: this is the participatory end of the weekend, where the repertoire can move according to who turns up and what the room calls for. For listeners, it is also the night that puts the later concerts in context. A jam makes the genre feel communal, grounded in players testing feel, form and familiar changes together.[1]

Friday brings the current local connection

At 21:00 on Friday, October 9, Dawnette Fessey joins Big Creek Slim Band. Big Creek Slim’s own site places his work in pre-war country blues and early Chicago grit, while also documenting a forthcoming 2026 duo release with Li’l Dawnette. That makes this date feel less like a passing bill and more like a live chapter in an active collaboration. The pairing supplies the weekend’s strongest Copenhagen connection: traditional blues vocabulary filtered through a Danish bandleader’s ongoing work with a singer from England.[1][2]

Saturday follows the acoustic map

Sweet Marta & Johnny Big Stone play at 21:00 on Saturday, October 10. Their official description identifies the duo with acoustic blues roots, traditional American music, Delta blues, Piedmont blues and old-time country; it also lists repertoire associated with figures including Reverend Gary Davis, Blind Lemon Jefferson and Blind Blake. That historical map makes a fitting final stop after Friday’s Big Creek Slim set. The three nights move from an open jam through a contemporary collaboration and into an acoustic duo whose musical frame is explicitly shaped by early blues forms.[1][3]

Practical route through Mojo

All three shows take place at Mojo Blues Bar, Løngangsstræde 21C: Thursday’s Blues Jam begins at 21:30, while Friday’s Dawnette Fessey – Big Creek Slim Band and Saturday’s Sweet Marta & Johnny Big Stone both begin at 21:00. Choose Thursday for the open-room atmosphere, Friday for the Big Creek Slim connection, or Saturday for the focused acoustic programme. Recheck Mojo Blues Bar’s official calendar before heading out, since times, admission and programme details can change.[1]
