Rip Roarin Roots Ft Garry Smith and Hot Rock Pilgrims

Take a walk down roots alley with Hubert Murray alongside some of the best folk, blues and bluegrass acts in London.

Garry Smith is a resonator wielding slide guitarist who denies being a Blues singer. He sings about middle aged lust, British social history and his youth. If time permits and the mood takes he may do a bit of Robert Johnson. Or Richard Thompson. Or Tom Waits. Then there may be instrumentals.

The Hot Rock Pilgrims are an exciting new bluegrass old time and roots band bringing together Dan Edwards Vocals, Guitar and Old time banjo, Bruno Pichler on dobro, Sam Rose on vocals and double bass and Hubert Murray on vocals and guitar. This cross cultural group ranging from Ireland Germany and the UK, create roots music steeped in tradition but infused with freshness that enthralls and entertains.
