Keep an eye out..Local chap too


Not gonna post a review as there's one here..
www.citylife.co.uk/.../18234_review__matt_schofield_band___band_on_the_wall

The music was top notch, all elements related to Blues. I think he's a fantastic guitarist in his ability, flare, and nod to past guitar greats styles, all with a new approach too. Oh and a voice to match it all.....

Ryhtmically it was a treat, the band shuffles, swings, funks, jazz's (does not sound right that does it!) and some nice New Orleans 2nd line thrown in too. Defo go again...

It was a top gig! That was the third time I've seen him and he just gets better and better. Nice chap too, we had a chat outside after the show. His CD's are always on the go at my house.

Might be way off the mark here but is it Matt Schofield who plays in the house band and Mat & Freds? A harmonica friend of mine was playing with him im sure.

I put a blog up a few months ago raving about him but didn't get much response. If I'd have known that some of you were going last night I'd have tried to scrounge a lift. My van broke down a few days ago and my lift backed out at the last minute so I was a bit gutted really. I saw him last year and he really is the dogs doodahs.
