Lineup and details for whippoorwill present DALE STORR with band + Serious Sam on Sunday 20th March 2011
Dale Storr with band
'Dale is one of the best New Orleans players I've ever seen' - Richard Hawley
'I've seen Mac's (Dr.John's) Shadow' - David Barard, Bass player for Dr.John
'A tour-de-force of Rockin' New Orleans Piano' - Blues matters Magazine
In March of 2006, Dale's passion for New Orleans music saw him perform his debut theatre gig as a soloist, concentrating on the New Orleans piano styles of his afore mentioned influences. The success of that performance led to further dates and Dale has not looked back since. Following the acclaim of those early solo performances Dale added another dimension by bringing in Vocals, and also adding a full line-up of Drums, Bass and Horns consisting of some of the cream of the British Blues scene. Since then, The Dale Storr Band has gone from strength to strength and their army of Fans keeps on growing. Dale's ambition has always been to play the music of New Orleans, which can be anything from a classically influenced minuet, a latin rhumba, a back o' town junker blues to a frenzied boogie woogie. As seen with every Dale Storr performance, he's certainly fulfiiling that ambition.
Serious Sam Barrett
Praise for Sams LP Close to Home. . .
"Deliciously home-grown, this is a rewarding collection of songs that could well renew your faith in underground folk scenes. This stripped down and raw album is riddled with the gritty reality of this artist's Northern life and makes no apologies" ACOUSTIC MAGAZINE
An endlessly playable delight from beginning to end- VINTAGE GUITAR MAGAZINE (USA)
Yorkshirecana bluegrass brilliance from Serious Sam. He plays a mean 12 string resonator, mixing songs about his home county with traditional southern folk stompers. Theres authenticity, theres soul - someone to get very excited about.- ARTROCKER.COM
Barrett has become a master of his craft-BLUES MATTERS MAGAZINE
a truly triumphant debut album-+1 MAGAZINE REVIEW
This quite simply is a wonderful debut collection of songs-THE LINK MAGAZINE
