THE BC COMBO, featuring MoMojo Records recording artist Bev Conklin, has been bringing their signature style and passion to Blues, Jazz, Swing, Folk, R&B, Soul and more for over 33 years. Bev Conklin aka “BC” has been bringing her brand of Blues, organization, creativity, perseverance, and leadership along with an international touring band to include band leader Wayne Smith who toured on keys with Jay & the Techniques and backed other touring acts on keys, drums and guitar. Wayne has arranged all their original music and given this band it's signature style since their start as BC & The Blues Crew in the 90's. From Chicago and touring with Nature's Divine, Joe Mac brings his gifted rhythm, soul and Blues on lead guitar. Mitch Shelly began his tenure with BC & The Blues Crew since 1997 and remains one of the region's highly sought after bassist on electric and upright. From Orange NJ, retired supervisor and fire fighter, Glenn “Speedy” Spadone, is the heartbeat of the band on drums.
Based in the Lehigh Valley PA, this band's journey began as BC & The Blues Crew in 1992.

The BC Combo is composed of world-class international touring artists from New Orleans, Chicago, and Bethlehem PA.

Their motto... It's all about having fun!
