Acoustic Blues

About Me

Check out our website at http://www.acoustic-blues.co.ukAfter playing a few impromptu sessions down at The Bull in Stanford Dingley, we formed Acoustic Blues in 2006 & did some practice! Our aim is to play songs that we like playing, and along the way entertain you. That may be why the set list is somewhat eclectic!Tom is a guitarist with a light touch and subtle lead style, moving effortlessly around the fretboard of his Takamine acoustic.Ian delivers energy and strong rhythms on his Avalon acoustic and has a delicate slide style on his Ozark National Steel guitar.Come and see us soon!Cheers, Ian & Tom
