Paddy Milner's "Londonola"

Paddy is recognised as one of the leading blues singer/pianists of his generation and it's with great pleasure we welcome him to the Club for his debut gig. His critically acclaimed first album '21st Century Boogie' was released in 2000, The Times calling it "impressive and original", and from this point onwards he has become a bona-fide boogie/blues maestro. Career highlights to date include performances with Jack Bruce, David Gilmour, Van Morrison and Phil Manzanera as well being the recipient of the 'Best Keyboard Player' title at the 2014 British Blues Awards. With his classic blues growl of a voice and an unusually fluent and impressive piano technique his trio, "Londonola", featuring Spencer Brown on bass and Pat Levett on drums, combine the best of British musical innovation with a New Orleans Blues spirit and energy. The love of the music is palpable so expect a top class affair packed with the best of boogie/blues badness.
