Not Only But Also The Blues: The Mojo Workin' Band / Russell Sinclair (solo)

Another great line up of two of the best blues acts in the South West, curated by local bass player Mary Caffrey who writes:

Mojo Workin Band

This funky blues outfit plays tunes from Muddy Waters, Howlin Wolf and Freddie King to Aretha Franklin and James Brown. Coming down from Somerset this 7-piece band plays a vibrant set of blues and soul designed to get your feet moving and soul stirring. With Montgomery Clift on drums, Nick Dixon on bass, David Underwood on lead guitar, Al Cosnett on harmonica, Paul Cannon on saxophone and Meru Michael rhythm guitar, keys and vocals

Russell Sinclair

Russ is the real thing. He has developed a name for himself as a true bluesman. Tonight he brings original blues and swing into today with energy bursting from every note and beat. Playing with passion and feel, he makes his guitar sing and every note count, winding a path from Louisiana to Baton Rouge and up to Chicago. It's always a night to remember when he plays here.

A new shape to these evenings There's a bit of a change coming up having started this night primarily as a blues band jam it has grown and now we have 2 great bands each month who put in a lot of effort and travel time in, to come and play for you so the jam at the end has become a little difficult to squash in . The evening will now have a mid section after the first band where musicians can book in to do a mini spot of 2 or 3 numbers or a mini jam then the second band will be on.
