The Boot Heel Playboys
The Boot Heel Playboys are once again returning to the Country Soul and suffice to say we are pretty excited about that. Formed in 2017, TBHP are a Western Swing outfit in the vein of the seminal Bob Wills & The Texas Playboys. Playing an authentic mix of classic 1940's / 1950's country and western swing dance tunes accompanied by fine originals compositions the Playboys are a "toe tapping, two stepping, be-bopping bunch of a band that sets out to get you dancing"! Featuring a fabulous lineup with founder and chief instigator Phil Morgan on his "Bigsby" steel guitar and vocals, Mr Dave Madgewick on vocals and rhythm guitar duties, Ewan Penkey on double bass, Chris Haigh on fiddle, Tim Pearson on Piano, Xav Riley on guitar and David Doel on drums. These well respected and top notch musos follow in the giant footsteps of such musical luminaries as Bob Wills and The Texas Playboys, Tex Williams, Johny Lee Wills and other fine Western Swing artists of the day. Come and see this unique outfit do what they do and be sure to bring your dancing shoes! https://www.facebook.com/bootheelplayboys
