We always love to showcase emerging UK blues talent, and so we’re delighted to welcome Mat Day to The Bear Club for the first time with his own band.
Mat has performed at renowned blues clubs such as Tuesday Night Music Club and Diseworth Blues, and you might have caught him playing here with Will Wilde at his awesome pre-Christmas gig. He has long been the lead guitarist for award-nominated songwriter and producer Greg Coulson, and has also been recruited to play for Alice Armstrong and The Blockheads.
His influences range from Robben Ford and Marcus King to Miles Davis and John Coltrane, resulting in a fresh, soulful crossover sound that still respects blues tradition.
Featuring Mat Day (guitar and vocals), Luke Palmer (bass), Sam Round (drums), and Ben Maxwell (keyboards).
“The Mat Day Band? They’ve arrived. And they’re on fire…”
“Light and airy style, genuinely exciting guitar work…”
Doors 7pm / Music 8.30pm / Tickets £16 / £10 for members
