Welcoming back the incredible Laurence Jones for the Gloucester R&B festival! 🎸
The award-winning and critically acclaimed blues artist from Liverpool has opened for the likes of
Ringo Starr, Sir Van Morrison, Jeff Beck, Johnny Winter, Walter Trout and recently Status Quo.
After Joining Buddy Guy on stage to jam and experience the blues first hand,
Buddy remarked "He’s like a young Eric Clapton" and that pretty much says it all.
Laurence has just released his most personal album to date, his first ever solo acoustic album.
'On My Own' is an intimate record that explores recent health struggles and takes him back to his roots where it all began.
The album marks a new chapter for Jones, following what he describes as the most difficult year of his life battling Crohn’s disease. Written during a flare up, 'On My Own' reflects raw truths about living with this invisible illness, love, and life on the road. For Jones, it represents both survival and reinvention. Dr’s orders meant Jones had to re-think his high energy stage performances, trading in constant movement for a setup that allows him to sit and play. The change sparked a new creative path that’s raw and organic offering a side to him fans have not seen before. Living with Crohn’s disease has shaped not only Jones’ music but also his perspective, as an ambassador for Crohn’s & Colitis UK, he hopes the album will resonate with others facing any struggles & invisible disease
The festival is situated in the heart of Gloucester, within easy reach of both parking and public transport. The entire festival will be totally free for all to enjoy – just as it has been for over two decades! 🎶
Keep your eyes out for all the other incredible acts we have on the bill this year! 💙
