BLUZE Press Release

'BLUZE is a meeting of experienced and talented musicians in their own right who bring an original sound to that great genre which is blues'

BLUZE...as a national band, is now in it's sixth year of road work around England, Scotland, Wales and Ireland. Since it's formation in 1998 BLUZE has generated a firm fan base wherever they appear. The distinct talents and personalities of the players melding together to create an interpretation of the blues that is totally it's own.

That is not to say that BLUZE see themselves only as a blues band. Their approach to music is evolving more from a roots direction.... plus the fact that many blues tunes were folk tunes in their original conception, gives BLUZE far wider scope in their search to find material to fit their style, and also in the way they structure the originals they produce from time to time.

They are as happy playing Trowbridge Pump Festival, the Upton Blues Festival or the Cruinniu Na Mbad festival in Kinvara Co Galway. And the venues are as happy to have them. This varied approach to their music was showcased on their first CD "BLUZE DEMOZ" with the African drums of Noel Gueye and on their second CD "BLUZE THE BAND" with the additional vocals of American singer Jane Pearl. The band are now back in the studio working on their third CD.

BLUZE were featured on "Blues in Britain" magazine's Best of British Blues CD, with a song by Chris Willey

The repertoire extends from Willie Dixon to Mose Allison,Ray Charles to Jimmy Reed along with great original tunes.
