SUMMARY:Paul Jones & Dave Kelly
DESCRIPTION: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. \nFounder 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 thrilling singer and harmonica maestro\, 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. \nA live acoustic set by this dynamic duo is an occasion you’ll remember. If you’re a true Blues fan\, everything you need is here. \nUnreserved seating. Bar/restaurant/bar snacks available.  Cash raffle to support a local good cause.  Book early for this rare intimate performance by two titans of the Blues. \n£30 | Doors open 7pm | Performance 8pm\nTickets with NO booking fee available from Bude Tourist Information Centre
