Hotcha Paul and The Head Honchos

We are extremely pleased to welcome back the fabulous Hotcha Paul and The Head Honchos to the Country Soul. A London based quintet Hotcha Paul and The Head Honchos take their inspiration from the music & dance scene of the 30?s era and are touched by a range of musical artists such as Slim Gaillard, Fats Waller and Tempo King. Fronted by head honcho Mr Paul Crook (vocal, guitar and dancing) this band is full of musical talent with Niall Oates on bass (Ronnie Scott?s rejects, Rag and Bone club), Stephen Large on keyboards (Caro Emerald, Paloma Faith and Squeeze) Andy Jones on drums (Imelda May, Alabama 3 )and trumpet ace Barry Few. Join us at the February CSS and see this marvellous quintet do what they do?.

Florence Joelle

We are always delighted to see Florence Joelle and her great band perform at the Country Soul Sessions. A Parisian based in London Florence Joelle has created her own musical landscape. Touches of blues, gypsy jazz, 1950's rhythm n' blues can all be heard in her lovingly crafted compositions. Her albums Kiss Of Fire (2011), Stealing Flowers (2013) and Life Is Beautiful If You Let It (2016) have all been well received and provide a complimenting musical document to this unique singer and personality. In late 2023 Florence collaborated with London based outfit Tiny Flaws on their EP release ?More Flaws? by lending her captivating vocals to the project. For this Session Florence will be accompanied by Ian Marcus (Double Bass/Saxophone), Nick Tomalin (Piano). Don?t miss her?.
