Overview
A blues evening at 229 in London, featuring the Scottish band King King alongside the Deborah Bonham Band and DJ Snowboy, as part of the January Blues Festival. It marks the festival's tenth anniversary year.
The January Blues Festival marks its tenth anniversary year with Scottish band King King, who formed in 2008 and built their profile through support slots with John Mayall's Bluesbreakers, Thunder and Europe. Their debut album, Take My Hand, appeared in 2011, and they have since released five studio albums and two live records. At the 2014 British Blues Awards they won five prizes, including Best Band and Best Album, and in 2016 their studio LP Reaching for the Light took the Best Album award.
The special guests are the Deborah Bonham Band. Deborah Bonham is a UK blues-rock vocalist whose work includes collaborations with Paul Rodgers, Robert Plant, Foreigner and Ann Peebles. Snowboy hosts the evening as DJ, playing original blues 45s between the live performances.
The evening is staged at 229, a concert venue on Great Portland Street in London, and pairs live blues-rock with a DJ selection of original blues singles.
