If you were at Lichfield Jazz Weekender and caught The James Oliver Band, you’ll know just how good live blues can be when it’s done properly!
We’re continuing that spirit with The Classic Blues Show - a six-piece band made up of experienced musicians with deep roots in the blues. Expect thoughtful playing, strong vocals, and a swinging horn section bringing the music to life in a really authentic way.
The show explores the blues traditions from the Delta and Chicago through to the British blues scene of the 60s and beyond - from B.B. King and Jimmy Rogers through to John Mayall and Peter Green, and the bands that carried that sound forward in the UK.
It’s a relaxed, enjoyable evening of music, stories, and classic blues played by people who really know the genre.
A nice follow-on for anyone who enjoyed the weekend’s festival atmosphere in Lichfield.
