SUMMARY:Gwyn Ashton
DESCRIPTION:Ashton is on the top of the list of the new wave of modern blues rock artists\, spearheaded by The Black Keys\, Jack White\, Seasick Steve etc. Live\, his dynamic performances also include haunting and mesmerising bottleneck and lap steel moments. \nLaying down a dirty backbeat on a foot drum kit\, bass lines with his thumb\, he attacks his guitar with a bottleneck slide\, sings and blows blues harp into a lofi radio microphone\, creating the illusion of a full band. From a scream to a whisper in a split second\, his dynamic sensitivity on all these instruments defines his musicality and flexibility. \nWith a new single Get Outta Town feat Guns N’ Roses guitarist Richard Fortus and members of Australian bands Cold Chisel and Superjesus\, the Welsh-Australian recently appeared across Europe with prog rockers Wishbone Ash\, co-headlined the Adelaide Guitar Festival in Australia and blazed his way across the UK\, Germany\, Balkans\, Czechia\, Slovakia and Poland. He’s played dozens of festivals across Europe\, UK\, Mexico\, Brazil\, Australia and Russia and tours with some of the biggest names in rock and blues. \nInspired by the likes of Hendrix\, Ry Cooder and David Lindley\, his “guitarsenal” includes a rack of electric and acoustic instruments including lap slide\, resonator\, 12-string and old pawn shop guitars. He plays venues\, festivals\, guitar shows and conducts masterclasses worldwide.

SUMMARY:Doggerel
DESCRIPTION:Doggerel burst from the kennel and onto the stage to flog their special brand of bung blues\, roughhouse rock\, and sundry sad tunes about drinking\, dishonour\, and death. Based around the steel guitar and drums of founding members Kier Stevens and John Kostaras\, Doggerel always keep a tight focus on looseness\, ratbaggery\, and having a rollicking good time. \nThrow in some bass\, saxophone\, and a shot or two\, and things are really starting to look up for you. Every show is a cheerfully irreverent affront to blues tradition that will leave your ears in even better condition.
