Event information

On Saturday 7th September we are very excited to welcome the legendary Deborah Bonham and the band, described by Classic Rock Magazine as "[a] powerful rock band steeped in the primal intimacy of the Blues", to JJJ!

Deborah Bonham is a Redditch native (where she grew up with her brother, Led Zeppelin's John Bonham), and over the course of an impressive career has established herself as one of the finest Blues, Rock and Soul singers that the UK has produced. A string of critically acclaimed original albums and captivating standing ovation concert performances, from the Royal Albert Hall and London Palladium, to the Amphitheatres of the USA 'Stars Align Tour' with Paul Rodgers, Jeff Beck and Ann Wilson of Heart, have consistently garnered glowing reviews.

The band features Belfast born Guitarist Peter Bullick, lauded by the press for his passionate playing, exudes his influences from the world's finest Guitarists in every note of his performance. Free/Bad Company vocalist Paul Rodgers chose Bullick to fill the shoes of the late Paul Kossoff, in his Free Spirit Band. Rodgers and Bullick, along with the rest of Bonham’s band, G Louis (Keys), Rich Newman (Drums) and E Rowley (Bass), extensively toured the UK and USA, culminating in the Billboard Chart #2 album and DVD, 'Paul Rodgers’ Free Spirit Live at The Royal Albert Hall London'.

Classic Rock Magazine said of the band following attending one of their gigs: "The top-flight Blues-Slingers deliver in style. They’re no strangers to entertaining crowds of thousands at international Blues festivals when they’re not backing Paul Rodgers live, so catching the band at an intimate Sold-Out venue [..] was an opportunity too good to miss" ... so make sure you don't miss out on what will be a great night of blues-driven rock featuring a great mix of original material and finely crafted covers of classic blues and rock tracks that have meaning to Deborah and the band!

Support is from "The Father & Son Dynamic Duo" Ben & Stu providing a set of original material sprinkled with covers that have inspired them over the years (the keen eyed amongst you may recognise Ben as previously frontman for Joe Joe Jims' soul favourites Rattlesnake Jake).
