King Pleasure And The Biscuit Boys
Rough, tough and always rocking, the legendary King Pleasure & The Biscuit Boys' hit Linton with their zany stage show which belies the fact that here is the finest, most authentic Rhythm Blues band ever to come from outside the USA. http://www.bigbearmusic.com/kingp/home.html
The Stumble
What can we say – we broke our own rules to bring them back to Linton. If you saw The Stumble in 2007 then you know they are the complete outfit combining stage presence and superb musicianship with stunningly original material. Catch this band live at Linton again, you’ll be glad you did !
RJ Mischo & the Red Hot Blues Band
Replaces Climax Blues Band due to illness
A rare opportunity to catch renowned Minnesota Bluesman RJ Mishco who has played with the likes of Muddy Waters, Mojo Buford, Percy Strother, and Milwaukee Slim. Funnelling everyday life and personal experiences through his harp and vocals, what pours out is the hot blooded passion, the playful humour and high voltage energy of the blues.
Big Blind -
Sensational Dutch Band who have picked up where the Hoax left off.....
NuBlues
Ramon Goose has been described as the 'cream of the UK's emerging blues stars'. In his NuBlues guise he has forged a hip ‘nu’ sound influenced by Mississippi Delta blues & Chicago Blues then fusing it with Hip Hop loops and grooves. His CD “Dreams of a Blues Man” is an all time classic
Joanne Shaw-Taylor
She spent a summer touring Europewith the super group D. U. P. with fellow band members Dave Stewart (Eurythmics). Candy Dulfer (Prine) and Jimmy Cliff. If you can imagine the love child of Stevie Ray Vaughan and Dusty Springfield then you are beginning to get a feel for Joanne's mixture of fiery guitar playing, sultry vocals and 100% pure soul.
