We welcome the awesome blues guitar talent that is Paulie Boy Blues to The Bear Club for the first time. He brings the noise, the swagger and raw ability of someone carrying lightly the burden of blues rock tradition upon his shoulders.
Comparisons with Hendrix are plain and obvious but too easy. Yes he plays with some of his panache and experimentation but in doing so he finds his own style. He bridges the space between classic blues and contemporary noise rock with total authenticity summoning the spirit of the past but taking the music forward into the future with a huge sense of conviction.
Support is from local heroes Dois Padres who bring their own swampy blues-tinged rock sound back to The Bear Club for what should be one of the great blues nights of the summer.
“After a breakthrough year with striking performances across America, Canada, and England, Paulie Boy Blues has solidified his name as one of the most exciting names in the modern blues rock scene.”
“…plays with the flair, spontaneity and dexterity which Hendrix did, including playing behind his back, with his teeth and between his legs, and he never drops a note. If you liked Hendrix, if you liked Stevie Ray Vaughn you are going to love Paulie Boy Blues!”
