The next Music Night at the SCC falls on Friday 19th February, when the Club welcomes back The Blue Bishops, another band who are long overdue a re-appearance at the Club. Their style is very much at the up-beat rocking end of the blues/R&B spectrum, and their line-up features musicians with an impressive musical heritage.
Guitarist/vocalist Simon Burrett is a veteran of many bands since his time as an artist with Mike Vernon’s Blue Horizon label in the ‘60s, and Geoff Grange (guitar/harmonica/vocals) is a former collaborator of Bill Wyman and Nicky Hopkins. The Club is especially pleased that bassist Jim Rodford, of The Zombies and Argent (and rarely available these days because of his touring schedule with them) has confirmed he can do this gig; and Jim’s son Steve Rodford, who now also plays with the Zombies, is on drums. More info at www.bluebishops.co.uk.
Their album “In The Red” was produced by former Abbey Road luminary John Leckie, producer of Bebop Deluxe, Argent and Radiohead. Find out lots more and hear some tracks at www.bluebishops.co.uk. It will be an exciting evening of music ranging across blues, rock and R&B, and the Club looks forward to seeing you there.
Food will be available once more, with a new menu, and with hours extended so that it is served up until 9pm.
