Blue boy can play the whites?

Last night in Sheffield we listened to a blues guitarist called Alex McKown. Alex has sung and played at major festivals in France and the UK to great acclaim and has been nominated for a British Blues Award 2011. This newcomer's just cut his first CD and is one to watch for sure. Manfred Mann/Blues Band's Paul Jones tips him for stardom.

Did I mention that this R&B star in the making is just 14 years old?

The main act of the night was the evergreen Frank White and his band. Great pie and peas, wonderful Thornbridge ales - Rock on!
