The Blues Underground is a workshop and jam space located at 10 Lois Lane off China Steps behind the Queens Hotel - it's directly underneath Clifford's Wake, the coffee shop and bookstore. The Blues Underground began as the Nanaimo Blues Society's Community Outreach project and thanks to the sweat equity of many of our members, 10 Lois Lane was transformed from a grubby, graffiti covered basement full of trash into a funky Blues Can which opened on June 23, 2007.
