About

Paul Jones, Dave Kelly, Tom McGuinness and Gary Fletcher formed The Blues Band back in 1979. They finally 'parked the tour bus' in September 2022.

Fletcher's individual work had run in parallel with The Blues Band for some years, so this was his opportunity to focus on his own music, along with the very fine musicians who make up the GFB.

They are Alan Glen (Yardbirds, Nine Below Zero etc) on harmonica, Tom Leary (Lindisfarne, Joe Brown, etc) on violin, Andy Billups (The Hamsters) on bass, Nick Ritchie (Canto, Mud) on guitar and Sam Kelly (Tom Robinson, Circulus, The Blues Band) on drums.

Songs from The Blues Band's repertoire such as 'Greenstuff', 'Maggie's Farm' and 'Flatfoot Sam' feature, alongside material from Fletcher's own albums, including the recent and critically acclaimed 'River Keeps Flowing'.

"If he appears locally to you, in either solo or band format, get along to see him as you are in for a night of supreme musicianship and a damn fine night of live music." Jason Ritchie, Get Ready To Rock
