Simon Foster James Dean Dec 5 2024
After many years of working closely on various projects ranging from Pop and Blues, to Yacht Rock and Jazz, Simon and James have come together as a duo to bring some of their favourite songs from the last five decades, working together to produce a result that is sure to delight fans of hook-laden songs, subtle and emotional guitar playing and soulful vocals, tapping into a multitude of influences along the way.
As an international artist, Simon Foster (Flying Pickets, Arcelia, Baltimore Keys, Thunderthumbs, JD Blues Band) has been performing and touring for more than thirty years. He was described by Karamel Music Club as ?like Joe Cocker in Van Morrison?s hat and James Morrison?s socks. Ace!"
Hugely respected by all his musical peers, James Dean has been playing guitar for more than thirty years. From the JD Blues Band to his acclaimed Jazz album ?Here and Now? his flexible and lyrical guitar style across a vast range of genres, has seen him perform with a range of bands including The Baltimore Keys, EK1, The Blues Bandits, Monsters on a Leash and the Westcoast All Stars, supporting legendary artists like Nile Rodgers and Chic.
The Simon Foster & James Dean Duo is a project that has been spoken of for many years and is finally born. One voice, one guitar and some great songs.
Rosslyn Court
Expect a small, seated, friendly, quirky, listening venue with a heart ? we have a tiny bar selling beer, wine, cider and hot and cold drinks -nibbly stuff and always a cake. The venue is accessible, on one level. You will be seated at tables or in rows, according to numbers in the audience.
The first hour of concerts is livestreamed on YouTube. You can watch it any time after 7.30 on the night of the concert via the Rosslyn Court Website. There is an exclusive second set for the audience in the room, including a Q&A with the performers. We ask you to make a donation, please, when you watch the livestream to help us to continue this service.
In buying a ticket you are entered for the Rosslyn Court raffle. You may win a CD ?or a ?Who Gives A Crap? emergency toilet roll! WGAC donate half their profits to water charities and are plastic free. People who donate or engage with the live chat during the concert are also entered into the raffle.
There is usually a floor singer and often a 2-minute community slot informing us of what happens locally. The second half starts with a Q&A and is not livestreamed. If you think of something you want to know more about in the first half, just ask! Sometimes there is another floor song.
The concerts usually finish well before 10. Except for Tim Edey because he is unstoppable. (We also run a B&B here hahaha)
If you want to view the livestream after midnight of the concert date then go to the livestream option on the website where all the old livestreams live.
We have some tickets at £6 for people who cannot manage £12 this week and others at £18 for people who are in a position to help us subsidise concessionary tickets because we want to make good music accessible to as many people as possible.
