The line up is now confirmed for this ‘Goin Down South’ Chickenhead Lounge special.. Its a night dedicated to slide guitars, 3 string specials, roots blues and to the sound of raw southern blues.
Opening the night are two local good ole boys who are usually seen on stage as part of Leicester based outfit ’Blueswamp Southern’.. tonight its goin to be a little different, BOB DAYFIELD & NICK HOUGH take to the stage as a two piece guitar outfit playing some mean roots blues.. expect plenty of slide and stomp.
Next up we welcome ‘The Godfather of the UK cigar box guitar scene’.. CHICKENBONE JOHN, he plays them, he builds em and runs the UKs biggest and best cigar box festival. This man has played at most of the top blues festivals and tonight he’s here in The Lounge to shred his 3 stringer, and maybe more.. hell yes !
Rounding off the night your hosts The OUTWOODS COUNTY RIDERS.. tonight the boys pay tribute to the late ’R L Burnside’ with a set of blistering ramshackle North Hills Mississippi blues..
As always we have the ‘Chickenvision’ film show and tonight we also got some nice give aways from those nice folk at JACK DANIELS, ’the’ sour mash Tennessee whiskey..
ALL THIS AND ITS FREE ENTRY..we do have a collection for the bands tho, if you’ve had a good night please throw in your loose change..
