  • Bio

    Giles Robson and The Dirty Aces are fast rising stars on the UK and international music scenes. Robson first came to the attention of the UK national press in 2010 when backing blues legend Muddy Waters' eldest son Mud Morganfield. At a packed show in central London, The Daily Express praised his "Exquisite harmonica" and The Dirty Aces were described as "Virtuosi". The Express's Paul Stewart stated that Robson could "Possibly be the best harmonica player on the blues scene today" and praised Filip Kozlowski's "Cutting guitar" and lauded the band as a "Great blues combo". A track called "The Mighty Incinerator" from the band's 3 track promo CD was played on BBC Radio 2's Paul Jones show and was immediately spotted by Chris Evans and played on his Breakfast show the next morning with Evans stating "This is so good". This is the first time in the Paul Jones show history that a track has been heard by a mainstream radio 2 DJ and chosen spontaneously to be played on their show.
