About me:
i currently play guitar in 4 different bands, Me & my dad go under the original title of M&J Blues, and play a mix of blues/country/rock & roll stuff, i was taught how to play the guitar bny my dad when i was youg, and we always had a few hours playing blues stuff around the house each week, people always said we should get some gigs done, but my dad was never comfortable singing in front of i microphone. Eventually a few years ago we did an acoustic gig at the Sheffield Philadelphia blues Festival, after getting a great response, me and my dad decided to start getting some gigs around sheffield. the past 3/4 years has seen us gig regularly around sheffield, and we've built up a great fanbase too. a big thanks goes goes out to the Gardeners Rest for giving us chance to get started out, we now play regularly each month. I have been playing with a band called Slim and the big Man blues Band for ten years now, a big six piece swing / blues band. we are slowly winding down after giiging all around sheffield, and the blues pub circuit, we've played Colne Blues Festival 3 times, which was a great buzz for us all. Myself, the singer & sax player from Slim have a side project called The River Rats which has monthly gigs at the Hillsborough Hotel, and the Bath Hotel, the music is all acoustic blues/jazz, and is quite a departure from Slim. Since Slim and the Big man are going to be no more next year, I have joined a band called Eyeball (see my friends), we play a lot of original material, plus a load of old blues / rock 'n' roll covers. we've been playing together for a year now and have built up quiet a decent fan base around the sheffield pub circuit. all gigs are posted on here, so if you are in sheffield, check us out!!!

On tour in Yorkshire with blues guitarist Tom Rodwell - Madame Pamita, the world's foremost euphonious prognosticatrix! Coming all the way from the city of Los Angeles with her pack of tarot cards in one hand and a ukulele in the other, she brings a wagon-load of authentic rural blues, jug band and comic proto-jazz numbers to curious seekers. Romance and revenge and mirth and mayhem. Fans of Harry Smith's Anthology of American Folk Music, Alan Lomax's field recordings or what Greil Marcus likes to call "the Old Weird America" will be in for a evening's entertainment like no other!

*** Tuesday May 19 - The Cricketers Arms, Coney Lane, Keighley, West Yorkshire / 9pm
*** Thursday May 21 - The Harlequin, Nursery Street, Sheffield / 8.30pm
*** Saturday May 23 - Lantern Theatre, Kenwood Park Road, Nether Edge, Sheffield / 7.30pm / £10 with Miller's Modern Music Hall
