This years Bideford R’n’B Festival starts off on Weds 6 July with a free gig from 17 year old blues prodigy Luke Doherty and his new band. Playing both original and classic blues tracks, this talented teenager is well worth a look.
On Fri 8 July there’s a rare chance to see East Anglian 3 piece Smokin’ Hogs bring their down ‘n’ dirty, punchy R’n’B to the Palladium’s stage. Their style is based on late 60’s, early 70’s British rock and blues, high energy and authentic, laden with Seasick Steve like heavy dirty grooves. £5 entry on the door.
The headline act of the festival Wilko Johnson appears on Sat 9 July in his smallest gig of the year. After the success of the Dr Feelgood film ‘Oil City Confidential’ in which Wilko became the unexpected hero, there has been a renewed interest in him and his music, which has even led to a TV role! Expect an evening of musical mastery as Wilko’s unique guitar style joins forces with the brilliant bass of the ‘Blockheads’ Norman Watt-Roy and the hard hitting rhythm of drummer Dylan Howe.
