A regular Crossroads Blues Club attendee, Robert has recently performed at The ForumLive area of The LG Arena, Birmingham, before concerts by Mark Knopfler and John Mayer. He formed the new band for a one-off gig in Bridgnorth, and had so much fun he’s decided to get them together again at his favourite venue.

The band will be playing Robert’s originals as well as a whole host of Blues covers and tracks by some of Robert’s biggest influences. Robert will be supported by the excellent Becky Rose, Worcester based Singer Songwriter and Pianist, and Singer Songwriter Brains for Breakfast. As on the previous two occasions, there will be no door entry but the hat will be passed around during the interval. It all kicks of at 9pm.
