After five years with us Mr Bassman Danny Fox has moved onto pastures new. So now we’ve been joined by Robin Baker who also plays with the excellent Dead Like Harry. Danny Robinson will still be powering the band along from the drum stool. There will be a slight change of musical direction over the coming months.

There are two new clips of the band on You Tube. Do check them out...

Thanks to Iggybird for filming and posting these.

Robin is reunited with guitar sparring partner Stu Arfield and international session bass man Danny Fox to bring vibrant creative blues to the Cricketers Arms, Keighley on Tues June 7th. The gig is part of the Hi Fi Sessions season at the Cricks in association with The Den Hi-Fi's 25th anniversary, Creek, Epos and Custom design. This is an all ticket event and they've mostly gone already. For details see, www.thedenkeighley.co.uk

The band played a great opening set for Aynsley Lister back on March 31st. The show was regarded as a success by all concerned. Lovely venue, great crowd, great crew and staff and Aynsley and his band were throughly nice people. Danny Fox and Danny Robinson surpassed themselves as ever. We look forward to returning there and recommend it highly if you want to see a band there. Thanks to all involved.

It's with some regret that we are passing on the news that the festival has been cancelled due to lack of demand. This is the press release from organisers Brave New Arts;

"A new Blues festival due to take place at Magna on Saturday 30th April for a 3 day period has been cancelled due to poor advance ticket sales and sponsorship. The first year of the festival had received great PR and interest to the international line up but advance ticket sales were unfortunately too slow and the organisers had to make the difficult decision to cancel the event.

The band will be opening proceedings on the Yorkshire Stage on Sunday May 1st. The festival has a stellar line up including the fabulous Mr Jack Bruce.

The band are proud to be sharing the bill with one of the UK and Europes premier blues/ rock based performers Mr Aynsley Lister. The venue is the appropriately named Robin 2 at Bilston near Birmingham, the Midland's finest 700 capacity concert venue. Expect a thrilling night from all concerned.

Grey and I have been spreading the word about the Boardwalk event on Dec 16th. Tickets will be on the door and the night will be an early bluesy start to the festive season. Rehearsals and prep are going great. Tickets are £8 on the door and look out for the forthcoming interview between me and Grey Cooper....should be a good read....
