An evening of traditional, laidback blues from star players.
WEST WESTON is one of the world's top blues harmonica players. Artists he has toured and recorded with include the late Wilko Johnson, Who singer Roger Daltrey and leading Scandinavian band Trickbag. He is a member of US bluesman's Mud Morganfield's touring band and has been featured with many other American acts. West Weston has been a fixture on the international blues scene for many years, whether collaborating with others or leading his own band, the Bluesonics.
MARTIN McNEILL is well established as a solo artist and bandleader, with soulful slide guitar playing his trademark. Martin was a finalist in the 2024 UK Blues Awards and was runner-up for record of the year in 2020. He runs regular sessions at Leigh Community Centre, where he is joined by guest players. Martin's festival appearances in recent years include Sidmouth Jazz & Blues, Rye Jazz & Blues, Swanage Blues, Broadstairs Blues Bash and the Dart Festival.
TIM HUSKISSON is one of Essex's busiest musicians, especially well-known on the jazz circuit, where he plays everything from Dixieland through mainstream jazz to fusion. His expertise both as a clarinettist and pianist keeps Tim is high demand; on this occasion he will be on the keyboard. Tim has a particularly strong, instinctive feel for blues and has gigged with both West Weston and Martin McNeill many times over the years.
For this show, vocals will be shared between West Weston and Martin McNeill. They will delve into their pool of experience to produce an intimate evening of blues with feeling and spontaneity.
