Check Out The Norman Beaker Trio.
The Norman Beaker Trio
Three of the most legendary British Blues artistes play
their own brand of esteemed originals which have made them one of the most
popular bands in the UK and the Continent, including the song that's taken the
blues charts of the UK and Europe by
storm, "Only I Got What the Other Guys Want" as
well as the music of Buddy Guy, Howlin' Wolf, and many other masters of the
genre.
The Trio are among the final links to the first Blues
musicians, having worked with the greatest of the original artists from the US
and the UK. The band have played the major Jazz and Blues festivals worldwide
but feel just as at home in a small pub atmosphere as at the Royal Albert Hall.
