The Untouchables

About Me

The Untouchables transport you in time, bringing the blues of 1950s Chicago to 21st century England. This is the music of the Chess Records era influenced by jazz, folk, R&B and Gospel ....... ENJOY

“the band turned in a stonking set which again shook off any audience lethargy and had them rocking in the aisles! I am sure we will see these guys again soon, they were excellent.” Ashwyn Smyth of Digitalblues

"'Round Midnight Blues and Jazz Bar had an amazing Friday night with the Untouchables- what a band and what a crowd! Thanks to everyone who made it such a top night!" Mike at 'Round Midnight
