ROOTS SESSIONS -SWAMPGRASS GUEST SUPPORT NICK TANN

20th Nov 2019 @ 20:45 - 23:00

Free

Swampgrass play the mighty blues. It’s the dancing, drinking, up all night partying blues. Sure, there’s a slow song occasionally (no promises) but generally the shows start at pace and stay there. Following the release of their debut album – One Eye Open – in March 2016 the band completed their first tour in late Summer 2016. Spring 2017 saw the band embark on their second national tour, travelling to North Yorkshire, Wales, the South Coast and points in between.
Based in Glastonbury, the heart of Somersetshire, Swampgrass are: Sharon Honeywell – Vocals; Brad Lister – Guitar; Dru Franks – Drums; Andy Barnett – Bass; Reviews of our debut cd “One Eye Open”
“..pleasingly the band plough their own furrow without resorting to covering hoary old crowd pleasers…emotive vocals, like a British Janis Joplin” Dave Drury – Blues Matters (issue 91)
“a delightful 40 minutes of irresistible speakeasy blues” Jonathon Kardasz – Uberrock
“The ten tracks are a demonstration of the sound Swampgrass has twisted around their arrangements giving rise to a distinctive sound.” Liz Aiken – Blues doodles
Nick Tann is one of those pesky singer songwriters that yo may not have heard of despite being one of the busiest performers in the country. Nick’s solo show highlights his main influences, imagine Counting Crows having a conversation with John Martyn with Jeff Buckley adding his opinion.
