Get ready for nine days of rocking rhythm & blues in Gloucester, featuring an amazing line-up of local talent plus national and international acts. Artists performing in venues and pubs around the city include blues harmonica legend Paul Lamb, Sons of The Delta, the Steve Browning Band, Bridget And The Big Girls Blues, Worried Men, Steve Kent, Dan James Duo, Cool Hand, The Suspects, Muleskinner, D B Smith Band, Oliver Darling and more, plus jam sessions and exhibitions.
The Festival kicks off in style with blues harmonica heavyweights Paul Lamb and the Kingsnakes in Gloucester Park at 7pm on Saturday 24th July.
Hailed by aficionados and the music press around the world as Europe’s foremost blues harmonica exponent, Paul Lamb has forged himself a place in the history books as one of the greatest players of our time. He has won countless awards, sold record-breaking quantities of albums and performed the world over with his long-standing musical compatriots, The Kingsnakes. Recently inducted into the British Blues Awards Hall Of Fame (alongside the likes of Peter Green, John Mayall and Alexis Korner), Lamb still continues to bring his infectious brand of soulful blues to a plethora of fans around the globe.
