JB is an accomplished songwriter hailing from the North East and over the years he has toured England, Wales, Scotland(extensivly), Ireland and Northern Ireland. He has also toured the US and recently, Texas during the SouthbySouthWest festival,
where KFAN radio took an interest and gave him a slot to perform live on air.
JB toured India in '93, where he, much to his delight, utilised the beautiful network of railways.
Leading me nicely on to his appearence on the 'A Full Head Of Steam' album, which was a celebration of the 175th anniversary of the Stockton and Darlington line.

Well Pisceans are naturally the most artistic so we should stick together. Thanks for the video... your music is really good and it was a welcome break from work to watch/listen to it. Hope you managed to get home ok after the Springboard the other week and I hope you decide to play in Cottingham again (hopefully when I am in the area to watch as well!).
Hi there! If you write songs, you should play your own with a few covers thrown in. Otherwise covers is still fine! You have a lovely voice - sorry I'll be missing it! Eilidh :-)
Morning JB! The Penny Black's a monthly acoustic night organised by Angie & John from North East Live. Give 'em a shout and I'm sure they'll fit you in on Thursday night. The venue is on Ellerton Road in Hartburn, Stockton. Bye for now.
Heyyy not a problem man, i love your chooons, its right down my line of music listening. Yeee i'm always on the hunt for musical collabarations, if you need a vocal line or musical line, give me a bell :) Dean
Was great to see you at MML yesterday, TY for letting me know when you were on. You were great as usual just a pity the Homegrown stage was close enough to interfre with your sound. Maybe they should move the open mike stage indoors next year.
Hey There J.B. Great to drop by today! Hope your weekend is extra special and thanks so much for keeping in touch... Face of Jesus made me cry ya know!
i mite come and watch one of your gigs sometime, im due a night out, i might be going to zanzibar ibiza weekend on holiday sunday, but not sure yet,......... do you ever hear from my brother?
