The Bluesroom at Ryde Theatre - IAN SIEGAL BAND
This Saturday 3rd February 2007 sees the start of a new regular event for lovers of The Blues at The Venue, Ryde.
The Bluesroom will be a quarterly event bringing top class UK and International Blues Artists to the Island.
The first event showcases "one of the finest blues voices this side of the Atlantic" - Ian Siegal and his band. Without doubt the most talented musician to emerge from Britain on to the European blues scene in years. He doesn't just perform the blues, he is possessed by them. He doesn't just play the guitar, he talks to it...and it talks back with a voice ranging from the soaring passion of James Brown and Otis Redding to the gravelly depths of Tom Waits and Howlin' Wolf.
His latest CD “Meat & Potatoes” sees Ian returning to his roots with an album of powerful urban Blues, which he describes as “stripped down, mean and moody and as close as you can get to our live performances”.
Music Magazine Mojo reviewed his latest CD as "One of the most inventive blues recordings ever made by a British Artist ", awarding it four stars.
Plus support from The Amen Boogie Blues Band, looks all set to be a top night of Blues/R&B!!
