"Jack Bruce – Probable the most musically gifted bass player there’s ever been”
Roger Waters in Rolling Stone Magazine.
Jack Bruce & His Big Blues Band will be playing at the Journal Tyne Theatre on Saturday 31st March.
Bassist, singer, composer, musician Jack Bruce has travelled the world and the decades playing diverse musical styles but has now come home to the blues. The blues has always been the driving force, the root of Jack's art- whether his compositions made eternal by Cream- Sunshine of Your Love, White Room, I Feel Free or his new songs, Jack lives the blues.
His latest band featuring the very best of the young British blues scene rocks like no other says Jack- and I guess he should know having performed with Alexis Korner, Graham Bond, Manfred Mann, John Mayall, Eric Clapton, Frank Zappa, Tony Williams, Lou Reed, Burt Bacharach, Ringo Starr, Carlos Santana, Gary Moore and Joe Bonamassa to name quite a lot! Now he wants to play for you.
When asked what audiences should expect from Jack Bruce & His Big Blues Band in 2012
Jack said simply, "Blues ancient and modern and sweet and sour rock and roll".
