Donovan

Donovan

Scottish folk musician Donovan Philips Leitch rose to fame in the 1960s with a mix of folk, jazz, pop and psychedelia. Between 1966 and 1970, he produced several albums that were hits in both America and the UK and collaborated with The Beatles. After a lull in the following decades, Donovan experienced a revival with the Rave scene in the 1990s, later to release the album Beat Cafe in 2004.

Peter Tork and Shoe Suede Blues

Peter Tork and Shoe Suede Blues

Defining Peter Tork (The Monkees) and Shoe Suede Blues is akin to describing the history of popular music. Band mates Richard Mikuls, John Palmer and Arnold Jacks have shared the stage with some of the most influential recording artists of the last 50 years: Ray Charles, BB King, Ronnie Dawson, Chaka Kahn and Wanda Jackson, just to mention a few. Though Peter’s band of seasoned pros, Shoe Suede Blues delivers a heartfelt soulful, uplifting and quite unforgettable mixture, divined from their vision of what music is all about. Peter Tork and Shoe Suede Blues...witness that the heart and soul of music lives.

Michael Chapman

'Michael Chapman was never just a singer-songwriter - his gritty brand of guitar based songs span folk, ragtime, jazz and blues with a world-weary voice singing words of bitter experience. This man is so laid back that he makes JJ Cale sound like he's on helium.'
