Always a pleasure to put this young bluesman on at any of our gigs Jack Blackman. Jack’s guitar playing has been described as ‘exceptional’ by Whispering Bob Harris. He has performed his songs all across the country and as far as the Mississippi Delta. Having cut his teeth in his teens trading licks with such luminaries as Paul Jones and The Blues Band, more recently with Tony Joe White and receiving accolades from Martin Simpson who marvelled, ‘At last! A brilliant young guitarist coming through’, Jack is no stranger to blues and folk. On his latest album, he fuses this with country, rock and pop with a voice that has been described as sounding ‘older and more careworn than his tender years should allow’ (Acoustic Magazine).
We’ll be lucky enough to catch Jack at The Bath Hotel (CAMRA pub of the year) in an intermit setting for the perfect Sunday afternoon so why not join us,
Jack is an artist not to be missed.
