The Amen Boogie Blues Band were formed in 1998 when brothers Tim and Dave Hollis joined forces with Mick Fairservice and Ross Honeybourne. With a common interest in Chicago and British Blues a strong set of numbers quickly developed, consisting of covers by artists such as Muddy Waters, Son House, Elmore James and British Blues artists including John Mayall, Peter Green, ‘The Blues Band’ and The Producers.
The Band have been gaining momentum performing regularly on the Island Pub circuit as well as private functions. This has led to further opportunities including performing at an Oxford College Summer Ball, Cowes Week Marina, IW Folk & Blues Festival and numerous other festivals as well as supporting touring artists such as The Harry Skinner Blues Band, Big Bill Morganfield (the son of Blues Legend Muddy Waters) Matt Schofield Trio, Eugene ’Hideaway’ Bridges’, The Ian Siegal Band and Errol Linton’s Blues Vibe.

great site great music thanks for your friendship, check out the hoolahan slide on our video..s you will love this
many great slide players from Lenny Hogan to the late great Rory Gallagher strived to have a slide that allowed them to get that slide finger onto the fret board .The short slide as seen here http://www. youtube. com/watch?v=7CZNuTeq9hs was the closest working slide Rory found but it was still difficult even for Rory . I had the same problem trying to work out playing the slide intro to Dont Start Me Talkin and getting to that four fingered chord until I realized if I cut one side from the top of the slide i could get the tip of my finger on to the boards then I realized why stop with the top and cut the other side away too , that was the day a star was born The Hoolahan Slide .
