ABOUT DOC VENTURA
Longtime NAMBA collaborator DOC VENTURA is a Ventura, California-based blues musician born in Mississippi and raised on the south side of Chicago – areas deeply associated with the Blues. Named in honor of the great guitar player “Doc Watson”, Doc Ventura absorbed a steady stream of fingerstyle guitar greats such as Watson, Leo Kottke and Martin Simpson. His particular area of interest is Delta Blues emanating from Clarksdale, Mississippi, where he has been many times. Among the great joys of his life has been meeting Howlin’ Wolf, Muddy Waters, B.B. King and many others back in the day. If it’s got some soul Doc’ll take a crack at it, and provide a little blues history to top it off.

If you want more Doc Ventura (and we certainly do!) check out our exclusive livestream on Aug 8: “Delta by the Beach.” CLICK HERE FOR TIX

Julia Campbell Namba shares the compelling back story of how NAMBA Performing Arts Space came to be, as a legacy project by and for her late husband, Ben Namba (1930-2020).

Like Julia, Ben was a generous & longtime supporter of the arts in Ventura, California and elsewhere.
