Naming themselves after the 1940 Memphis Minnie penned song Nothing in Rambling, SISTER SUZIE and ANDY TWYMAN will be taking us on a journey through Mississippi and Louisiana performing music by artists such as Blind Boy Fuller and Elmore James. Guided by a mutual passion for early blues, they evoke the power and soul of the music and the people who created it.
Their emotional connection with the stories of the early blues performers gives soul to the deep blues songs they perform. Andy’s nimble and authentic guitar work provides the perfect back drop for Suzie’s powerful blues vocals and on-stage charm to shine.
Suzie and Andy have toured the UK and Europe, and become festival favourites. In 2024 they’ve played at Red Rooster Festival, Upton Blues festival as well as Glastonbury. The duo has also enjoyed success as separate artists before launching Nothing In Rambling.
Suzie sings and rocks the blues with her band Sister Suzie and The Right Band; Andy performs a lauded one-man band show, blending blues with Monty Python-esque comedy, and also plays guitar in Dana Gillespie’s London Blues Band.
'Suzie's vocals wash over the listener, raw, naked and soulful, like the voice of a body in anguish, looking for the answers to the questions of the soul...Twyman's virtuosity on guitar shines...his fingers dancing along the fretboard, creating a wild bluesy atmosphere.' - Blues Blast Magazine
'I adore this album, it has touched my soul' – Blues Matters Magazine (Review of ‘Live at Bush Hall’)
'Andy Twyman is a one man, 100% genuine blues boogie machine...like John Lee Hooker on acid with a touch of The Clash thrown in' - Blog of the Blues
