Paul Jones and Dave Kelly (Poster (Double-Sided - A3 Portrait)) (Presentation (169))

Paul Jones & Dave Kelly – Acoustic Duo

Music

Date: 14 September 2023

Doors open: 19:15

Start Time: 20:00

The Blues Band have retired from touring – but their two lead vocalists continue. Europe’s leading bluesman, Dave Kelly and thrilling singer and harmonica maestro, Paul Jones return to The Landmark. Past shows at the Landmark have been sell out. Book early to avoid disappointment.
Ruggedly durable and timeless, the Blues is perhaps more popular today than it has ever been. Young musicians still cut their teeth on its enticing 12-bar appeal, but its real rewards, true virtuosity, poise and knowledge, only come with age. Founder members of The Blues Band, Paul Jones and Dave Kelly’s tangled and colourful roots go way back into the true undergrowth of the tradition. As well as their own original material, they not only know and perform the work of the greats, ranging from Howling’ Wolf, John Lee Hooker through to Sonny Boy Williamson – they actually played alongside them, and enjoyed their friendship. After over a quarter century as presenter of his BBC Radio 2 R&B show, as a, what Paul Jones doesn’t know about the Blues can be written on a pinhead. The same can be said about Europe’s leading bluesman, Dave Kelly. He’s played with them all, including legends such as James Burton and Buddy Guy. Superb blues vocals combined with guitar virtuosity have elevated Dave Kelly into the higher echelon of international blues performers, where he truly belongs. If you’re a true Blues fan, everything you need is here.
