About the Band
The Dirt Road Band are:
Steve Walwyn – guitar & vocals (Dr Feelgood, 32 years)
Horace Panter – bass (founding member of The Specials)
Ted Duggan – drums (Banco de Gaia, Badfinger)
This is no ordinary blues-rock outfit. These are three seasoned musicians with decades of experience and the kind of chemistry you can’t fake. The Dirt Road Band plays hard, punchy blues-rock that gets your heart racing and your feet moving.
Originally formed as a side project five years ago, DRB has taken centre stage—especially after the release of their critically acclaimed debut album Righteous in July 2024.
Their creative process is instinctive, their live performance electric. As one contemporary musician put it:
"Seasoned professionals with the energy of teenagers."

Featuring
The Dirt Road Band
The Dirt Road Blues Band is the brainchild of guitar legend Steve Walwyn, mainly known as the longest serving guitar player in Dr Feelgood. During this time he amassed a massive reputation as a bona fide blues hero in the UK, Europe and beyond. He says "I'd always liked the idea of the power trio - stripping everything back to the basics: guitar, bass & drums."

Winner of the Emerging Artist Prize at 2020's UK Blues Awards, James has already rubbed shoulders with many of the greats of the guitar firmament Albert Lee, Bill Kirchen, Greg Koch to name just a few. Now, having recorded three vital, very contemporary albums, he is preparing to write a new chapter of not only his career but also Welsh music history.
