Details:
For 15 years Big Boy Bloater''s energetic blend of Blues, Boogie and Rock & Roll has thrilled audiences far and wide. With savage guitar and blues shouter vocals backed up by pounding piano, honking and screaming saxes and a rhythm section like an express train - you just can''t help but get down and boogie to the Bloater beat! Big Boy Bloater’s blues shouter voice has been compared to the likes of Big Joe Turner, Howlin'' Wolf, Wynonie Harris & Fats Domino and his wild guitar style is heavily influenced by the early sounds of Ike Turner, Johnny ''Guitar’ Watson, Mickey Baker and BB King.
As well as touring major cities all over Europe, the Middle East , USA & Canada, Big Boy Bloater and his band have made numerous TV and Radio appearances - including a week as the house band on Channel 4’s Big Breakfast (when it used to be good!), a live session and interview on Canada’s top morning TV program ''Montreal Today'', two sessions for Paul Jones'' Radio 2 Rhythm & Blues Show and most recently a live session for Mark Lamarr''s ''God''s Jukebox'' show on BBC Radio 2.
Bloater regularly appears with leading musicians from the current blues and R & B scene and has played in some of the most famous venues in the world including the World Trade Center NYC, The Jello Bar in Montreal, The Gold Coast Casino in Las Vegas, the Brown Derby in Hollywood and the Forum and Hammersmith Palais in London. As well as playing in Chicago style blues band The City Shakers Bloater is also the guitarist of choice for some of the greatest legends of 50''s music that have visited the UK over the years as well as modern artists such as Mike Sanchez, King Pleasure and the Biscuit Boys, Diz Watson, Kenny ''Blues Boss'' Wayne and Li''l Rachel.
If you want good time music then look no further, a great time is guaranteed from this master of his craft and his fine musicians
