Thursday 22 August GENO WASHINGTON & THE YO YOS
Geno Washington is still the ultimate 60s soul man, enjoying cult status in soul, blues and Rnb, mainly due to his unsurpassable reputation as a live peformer.
A contemporary of Georgie Fame, The Small Faces and Jimi Hendrix (all of whom were his support acts back in the day), Geno is as electrifying today as ever, a force of nature and a genuine joy to behold.
In 1980, 'Oh Geno!' was a massive UK Number 1 hit for Dexys Midnight Runners. Vocalist Kevin Roland based the song on his memories of Geno's gigs, when clubland used to join in the chants of Geno! Geno! Geno!
Geno Washington & The Yo Yos features members of the super tight Ram Jam Band, playing a blistering set of pared down street soul, RnB and house rockin' blues.
Opening by guitarist/vocalist Peter Hammerton (formerly with The Others).

Thursday 5 September THE CADILLAC KINGS
The Cadillac Kings are going from strength to strength. Their 2016 album 'The Secret of my Success' ended up on so many playlists that in 2 months it was voted one of the top 3 blues CDs of the year by the IBBA (along with Kaz Hawkins and Joe Bonamassa). Throughout 2017, the CD continued to make inroads into US radio and one of the album tracks reached Number One in Cashbox Magazine's Blues & Boogie Chart, and stayed there for 4 weks, holding off acts such as The Fabulous Thunderbirds, John Primer, Coco Montoya, Rick Estrin & the Nightcats, Samantha Fish etc. The Cadillac Kings were the only UK act to figure in the chart during 2017.
2019 sees the band celebrating its 19th birthday, with the multi-talented Tim Penn on piano, accordion and vocals, Mal Barclay on guitar, Mike Thomas on vocals, Paul Cuff on double bass and Roy Webber on drums.
"Entertaining, authentic and infectious, The Cadillac Kings' high energy RnB is enough to put a foaming head on a pint of real ale!" (Blues in Britain).

Thursday 19 September PETER DONEGAN and THE BAND (as seen on The Voice UK).
Peter Donegan is the son of Lonnie Donegan, the King of Skiffle. Peter recently made headline news when he appeared on The Voice and duetted with Tom Jones in a song his father wrote for him. Peter is a talented musician in his own right. A songwriter and multi-instrumentalist, he plays Piano, Guitar, Mandolin, Harmonica, Banjo, as well as lead vocals. He has toured with Lonnie Donegan, Van Morrison and Crystal Gale.
Peter and his great band will perform some of Lonnie Donegan's classics and lesser know recordings, combined with original numbers from his latest album which he wrote and recorded in Nashville. All in all, this will be a great night of Blues, Country and Skiffle, and a lot of foot-stomping fun!

Thursday 16 January 2020 MUD MORGANFIELD (MUDDY WATERS JR.)
Now a regular performer at The Eel Pie Club when he is visiting from Chicago, Mud Morganfield is a multi-award winning artist and an established star in the world of Blues music. The eldest son of the legendary Muddy Waters, Mud was brought up surrounded by many of the finest musicians in the Blues. Mud's singing is firmly in the best traditions of Chicago blues, and he is backed by some of the best musicians playing today. His big, powerful voice conveys deep emotional resonance on the slow numbers and good old fashioned testosterone-laden strut on those classic shuffles. H is acclaimed by both critics and artists such as Buddy Guy and Jools Holland for his own musical ability.

Mud's latest album, They Call Me Mud, was released last year to extensive airplay and great reviews. His award-winning album, Son of the Seventh Son, was launched in 2012 and was nominated in the Best Album and Traditional Blues Male Artist Album categories of the 2013 Blues Foundation Music Awards. He went on to appear on BBC's Later...with Jools Holland. More info at www.mudmorganfieldblues.com

Thursday 23 January MIKE VERNON & THE MIGHTY COMBO
"The audience was jumping for joy as a British blues legend let the good times roll with his all mighty combo". Stephen Foster, New Wolsey Theatre.
Blues Legend, MIKE VERNON has produced albums for some of the most famous artists in British Rock and Blues history, including John Mayall's Bluesbreakers (with Eric Clapton, Peter Green and Mick Taylor); David Bowie; Ten Years After; Savoy Brown; Fleetwood Mac (with Peter Green, Danny Kirwan and Christine McVie); Chicken Shack; Focus; Freddie King; Climax Blues Band; Level 42 and Roachford.

In the 1970s and early 1980s Mike was not only a member of the Olympic Runners, but also the baritone singer with Rocky Sharpe and The Replays. Mike Vernon & The Mighty Combo has recently released their album, BEYOND THE BLUE HORIZON to great reviews: ...."In fact it's a sensational band, actually!" Paul Jones - BBC Radio 2.
MIKE VERNON & THE MIGHTY COMBO have their audiences dancing in the aisles: Energising and tuneful rocking slabs of Rhythm & Blues in the vein of Fats Domino, Wynonie Harris, Little Richard and Louis Jordan et al. Full-on 100% goodtime music, guaranteed to put smiles on faces!
THE MIGHTY COMBO features Kid Carlos - an outstanding young guitar player from Spain; Ian Jennings on upright bass; Matt Little on keyboards; Paul Tasker on saxophone and Mike Hellier on drums.
