The Teignmouth Blues Band

About Me

A high energy electric blues band with additional jazz, rock and roots influences.Material comes from a broad range, reflecting artists like Albert King, T.Bone Walker, Freddie King, Muddy Waters, Jimmy Reed, Elmore James, Sonny Landreth, Buster Brown, as well as original compositions. which are now coming more and more to the fore. All songs on this website composed by Stephen Glover. Copyright stevmuzik.This is no tribute band, sure they play a few classics, but these are fresh and vibrant interpretations, which please purists as well as the less committed. This is blues with rock and roll sweat!The band formed 2 years ago after an impromptu wedding get-together. Since then they have built up a strong local following.Consists of a core trio :Steve Glover – Guitar, slide guitar and vocals.Background :In Devon, played with The Horace Coker Band and the legendary Gary Kane and the Tornadoes.Moved to London, played with The Southside Blues Band, a purist Chicago blues band, consisting of ex Arthur Brown and Atomic Rooster musicians, for many years.Later switched to The Bill Stickers Band, an outrageous R&B revue, consisting of ex Hawkwind and Rare Bird musicians.Now back in Teignmouth.Ian Loud – drums.A very well known and respected musician / recording engineer.Born locally, has lived all his life here, apart from international sojourns with legendary bands like Eddison Lighthouse and The Mojos.Ian’s solos are always a highlight of every gig, as well as being instructive for would-be drummers.Jim Burnett - bass Originally from Edinburgh, but now a long term resident of Teignmouth.Background steeped in soul, jazz and funk. Also played with many well respected local bands.Jim can sometimes be persuaded, if in the mood, to perform one of his legendary slap-bass solos!………………………..The band will augment from time-to-time with keyboards and horns.Further info on the band, including cd’s, can be obtained from the following email address:[email protected]
