Ross Harding - a South African-born, UK-based Dark Blues artist.

Recently called the 'Preacher of Dark Blues; in a multi-page spread in Blues In Britain magazine, Ross Harding was one of the standout performers at last year's Blues Festival.

Known for his powerful voice, raw emotion, and masterful guitar work, Ross blends the grit of rock with the soul of the blues. He channels the ghosts of the Delta through a modern, darkly cinematic sound.

Described as possessing “a remarkable dark and moving depth — cracked, soulful and incredibly emotive”, Ross has been featured in Blues Rock Review, Kerrang!, and other international publications.

Having performed at major festivals such as The Great British Rhythm & Blues Festival, and Stockport Blues & Roots Festival with great feedback, we are proud to welcome Ross back to Stockport!

Another great performer from last year's festival, Becki wowed the crowd in the theatre bar with her solo looping show, incorporating vocals, keyboard, guitar, and even a small gospel choir trio!

We are lookimg forward to seeing what Becki brings to the event this time!
