24th July

 

Tantrum are one of the most exciting young blues bands on the scene today.

With the band members not even into their twenties it's hard to believe they can produce such mature sounding music and play the blues as if they'd been doing so for many years. Tantrum take inspiration from the likes of Stevie Ray Vaughan, Albert King, Buddy Guy, Rory Gallagher, ZZ Top and Eric Sardinas.

They perform their own Blues/Rock material mixed with well selected covers from various artists and have fused all their influences together to create their own fresh sound.

It has been far too long a gap since we have had the pleasure of hearing this band at the club. They are in great demand at venues and festivals across the UK and rightly so.

The band are led by the dynamic and soulful vocals of Lorna Reilly, one of the strongest voices on the circuit, and accompanied by fellow ex-Roadhouse guitarist Jules Fothergill on rhythm, lead and slide guitar.

Now a 4-piece, after the departure of Marc Le Guerrannic, they are ably assisted by the superb rhythm section of Hayden Doyle on drums and, most recent recruit, Ian Mauricio on bass.

Fresh from a gig at the Maryport Festival, this is a gig not to missed.

The more observant of you will recognise Matt as the fine guitarist that formed part of the band backing Dani Wilde on her debut performance at the club back in April.

Personally, I was left wanting to hear more from this talented guitarist and was, therefore, delighted to hear that Matt has his own, established band who play regularly on the London Blues scene.

Matt is a funky blues guitarist who also possesses a soulful voice and writes most of the band's original material. His passionate and expressive playing is likened to the styles of Freddie King, Buddy Guy and B.B.King.

He is described as a blues treasure ready to be discovered, a real shining hope for British Blues.

Come and see why.

Jerimiah and his band made such an impact on their debut at the club back in April that I have had many requests for them to return - so here they are !!

We were treated to a mesmerising mix of blues, roots and reggae music from Guyanan born Jerimiah in his own very special style with his band, The Blue Aces, demonstrating the breadth and diversity of their musical skills.

Expect to see Jerimiah produce his trademark stool and sit with his legs wrapped around an African drum as the band launch into some trademark Caribbean numbers.

Jerimiah's band always consists of the very best musicians on the circuit and include vastly experienced Pete Nash on Keyboards and occasional slide guitar and the superb Steve Weston on harmonica.

It is always a pleasure to welcome back vocalist and guitarist Johnny Keiran and his band.

This long established outfit play a fusion of Blues, Jazz, Swing, Funk and rock to create a very pleasing, warm style of Chicago Blues and are given an edge by having one of the best harmonica players around in Tom McCree.

Lead guitar duties fall to John Jnr. with the very able rhythm section comprising Malcolm Pounds on drums and new recruit Terry Duggan on bass.
