Riverside Blues Band

About Me


Playing a mixture of Blues classics and furious R'n'B of the old school, The Riverside Blues Band are based in the New Forest in Hampshire, England, and have been up and running since 2004 playing in various venues in Southampton, Bournemouth and the surrounding areas. We'd write our own material but there're only so many rhymes for duck and rowlocks (see... we take the riverside bit quite seriously).

And here's Stan taking things very seriously indeed with the startlingly talented Hannah from Paint it Blue...
