This month we have a fantastic double bill for you! Goldie Reed and Devenport. Tickets £8.00 adv £10.00 on the door The NBE CSA Club Onslow Road Southsea. PO5 2NH Tickets online from http://webplus.barkingspider.abelgratis.com/tickets/ **Devenport** You don't have to have a back story that reads like a Guy Richie script, but sometimes it helps. Knife murders, heroin deaths, lead poisoning, world champion boxers, alcohol abuse, prison stories and more feature in Devenport's life, and therefore his songs... and, more relevant still, perhaps, his voice. This is a beautiful natural instrument, developed and strengthened by true life experiences, which, in many ways, make Devenport the most authentic of authentic British Blues singers. Signed to a major label as a kid, and enjoying a career working with some of the most respected names in the business including the likes of Cher, Guy Chambers, Leon Ware (the guy behind Marvin's 'I Want You' album) and more, Devenport returns after a 20 year self imposed hiatus from the business. http://www.youtube.com/embed/37FYvclMzVU ** Goldie Reed ** GOLDIE REED is already being tipped by many good judges to be a breakout artist in 2014. Her compelling voice and unique meld of Americana, blues and roots, mixed with more English folk sensibilities, marks her out as one of the trailblazers of the much lauded 'new heritage' scene coming out of South East England. With a first class, tasteful band Goldie's stated admirers already include the likes of Bill Wyman and Bob Harris as well as the wider British Blues community, even though Goldie is far from your 'standard' blues act. Bullfrog Blues are pleased to be able to bring a rare live performance from Goldie and her band in an intimate setting prior to her 2014 Festival appearances. http://www.youtube.com/embed/iv2d8PY5UkU Goldie Reed and Devenport.
