Authenticity and longevity are two attributes prized by blues musicians more than most - and Crosscut Saw have no shortage of both qualities.
The Leeds-based band are no strangers to European wide audiences and will be renewing acquaintances in your area this month.
In addition to their own material, they play tribute to such greats as Muddy Waters and Buddy Guy and, while touring Europe to promote their album In Debt you Bet! have worked with numerous top blues names.
Recently they've supported Dr. Feelgood and Aynsly Lister, touring with US blues stalwarts Eddie Blue & The Ravens and Jake Walker, and played all the big British festivals.
With front man Alex Eden, who was named Blues Musician of the Year in 2003, on vocals, guitar and harmonica plus a rhythm section comprising the two Richards - Ferdinando on drums, Green on bass - Crosscut Saw have been putting on a show since Adam was a lad and are sure to do the same at this upcoming gig.
Get along and see something really special.
