The Blues Band
Friday 7th May 2010 ('4' Seasons Festival 2010)
The Blues Band - "Simply the best purveyors of the Blues in the UK today".
PAUL JONES, DAVE KELLY, ROB TOWNSEND, GARY FLETCHER and TOM McGUINNESS
The Blues Band will shortly be celebrating their 30th year together!
Their fabulous musicianship is augmented by their close and personal understanding of the genre and their heartfelt pleasure in performing it. After 30 years of performing together, the integral voices and instruments interlock seamlessly with feeling and understanding. You won't leave a Blues Band concert with 'the blues'
Arguably the most successful Blues Band in Britain today, these blues lovers and great showmen continue to delight audiences with their extensive mix of Rhythm & Blues and Roots music. Powerful and emotional lead vocals from Paul Jones and Dave Kelly are the 'icing' on an evening of authentic blues music. Their extensive canon of recorded material includes a large catalogue of original songs as well as their own interpretations of songs from the genre's finest writers like Willie Dixon, Muddy Waters, Howlin' Wolf, Sleepy John Estes etc.
Acknowledged throughout Europe and beyond as being amongst the very finest purveyors of R&B, they have inspired numerous other blues bands - many of which have come and gone - but The Blues Band have remained a constant, increasingly popular fixture.
