Your hosts⬇️
Front man Big Jim Merriss is the charismatic, harp-playing former leader of the Red Lemon Electric Blues Band & Cracker & the Woodpeckers. He returns to his first love of rockin’
boogie blues & jump jive.
On guitar, for one night only, we have special guest Gaz Morris. Gaz has performed across Europe & the States with too many bands to mention - though you may be very familiar with names like Debbie Bonham, Hangman & the E Numbers.
Andy Harris is on double bass & vocals. Andy played his first paid gig aged 13 & says now he’s well into his 30s (cough!!) he’s finally got the hang of it!
Behind the front line sits Colin Edmonds (AKA Duke Delight) who, though rarely visible, has drummed with the likes of Ricky Cool, Flying Doctors, Red Beards from Texas & Delray Rockets.
Joining them from a music career spanning six decades & several exotic Black Country, UK & European hot spots is - 'Mr Back line... make the front man sound good' - piano man Mr Tony Martin!
Completing the line up is the latest arrival, Miss Jean Vincent. Jeannie made her name on the rock’n’roll/rockabilly circuit, touring Europe and Scandinavia with the likes of Bill Haley’s
Comets, Charlie Gracie and Screamin’ Lord Sutch. Some of her early records were produced by Brum legend Steve Gibbons. She says she’s delighted & honoured to now be ‘one of the Boys’.
Big Jim & his gang have a wealth of quality experience & a huge catalogue of songs to
choose from, but above all ooze that feel-good factor that can only happen when everyone on stage has genuine respect & admiration for each & every one alongside them.
