St Harmonica's Blues Club: Dexter Shaw & The Wolftones + Rt Rev Swifty LeZarre

We're delighted to host Dexter Shaw & The Wolftones again - authentic stuff from one of the best in the business. Born in 1950s London, Dexter became a mainstay of the British Blues scene after sound engineering for Dr Feelgood. He has played with some of the finest blues guys: Big Joe Louis and his Blues Kings, David Purdy, Gordon Smith and Little George Seuref. Dexter Shaw & The Wolftones were formed in the 90s before Dexter disappeared to rural France. He is considered one of the best out there playing that old school blues 50's style with absolutely fantastic musicians in the band including Francesca Shaw on double bass, Loris Peverany on drums and the legendary Steve West (West Weston) on harmonica - one of the UK's finest. This year Dexter has an outstanding guest musician joining him in the shape of award winning singer and guitarist from Denmark, Big Creek Slim.

Support comes from one of St Harmonica’s favourites ,The Right Reverend Swifty LeZarre, originally from New York City, bringing his Dobro to play some acoustic blues for us; time to testify!

The Right Reverend Swifty LeZarre will play at 8.30pm followed by two sets from Dexter Shaw and the Wolftones starting just after 9.00pm.
